To analyse the relationship between traditional stiffness and muscle antagonist coactivation in both stroke healthy participants, using linear non-linear measures of COP during standing, stand-to-sit, gait initiation. Participants were evaluated through a cross-sectional design. Electromyography, isokinetic dynamometer, force plate used to calculate coactivation, intrinsic functional stiffness, displacement, with metrics. Spearman's correlations Mann-Whitney tests applied (p < 0.05). Post-stroke participants showed higher contralesional = 0.041) 0.047).

Introduction Assessing the influence of respiratory assistive devices on diaphragm mobility is essential for advancing patient care and improving treatment outcomes. Existing robots have not yet effectively assessed their impact mobility. In this study, we introduce first time a non-invasive, real-time clinically feasible ultrasound method to evaluate soft wearable displacement. Methods We measured compared displacement lung volume in eight participants during both spontaneous robotic-assisted respiration. Building these measurements, proposed human-robot coupled two-compartment mechanics model that elucidates underlying mechanism by which our extracorporeal augments Specifically, robot applies external compression abdominal wall muscles, inducing inward movement, consequently pushes upward enhances function. Finally, investigated level shape various robotic forces motion. Results This intervention leads significant increase average 1.95 times 2.14 Furthermore, accuracy confirmed experimental results, with less than 7% error measurements volume. magnitude positively correlates while shows no relationship activity. Conclusion Our findings validate effective assistance robot, assists ventilation through intervention. system can assist increasing mobility, potentially resolving issue atrophy. Additionally, work paves way improved designs personalized assistance, tailored dynamics rehabilitation.
