Reply to: “1.5 Dissociation” of somatoparaphrenia for the upper limb and neglect for the lower limb following a thalamic stroke presenting as flaccid hemiparesis: rehabilitation applications and neuroscience implications

Olaf Blanke

This interesting case study reports on a patient who subsequent to a right thalamic hematoma developed a left hemiparesis, left extrapersonal and personal hemineglect and somatoparaphrenia, but only for the arm not the leg. It is not specifically mentioned ...

Ambulatory Assessment of the Dynamic Margin of Stability Using an Inertial Sensor Network

Silvestro Micera

Loss of stability is a precursor to falling and therefore represents a leading cause of injury, especially in fragile people. Thus, dynamic stability during activities of daily living (ADLs) needs to be considered to assess balance control and fall risk. T ...

Detection of movement onset using EMG signals for upper-limb exoskeletons in reaching tasks

Silvestro Micera

BackgroundTo assist people with disabilities, exoskeletons must be provided with human-robot interfaces and smart algorithms capable to identify the user's movement intentions. Surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals could be suitable for this purpose, bu ...

Steerable device and system

Philippe Renaud, Guillaume Cédric Yves Petitpierre, Marc Jasper Boers

A steerable device for use as e.g. a guidewire for insertion into a subject's body is disclosed. The device features a single side deflection of a bendable portion located at its distal end by application of a longitudinally-directed force either on an inn ...

Sensory feedback restoration in leg amputees improves walking speed, metabolic cost and phantom pain

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Giacomo Valle, Federica Barberi, Dario Bortolotti

Conventional leg prostheses do not convey sensory information about motion or interaction with the ground to aboveknee amputees, thereby reducing confidence and walking speed in the users that is associated with high mental and physical fatigue(1-4). The l ...

STEERABLE CATHETER WITH PORTIONS OF DIFFERENT STIFFNESS

Dario Floreano, Alice Tonazzini

A steerable catheter (10) comprises portions (100, 105) of different stiffness, having a proximal end (11), a distal end, a lumen extending there between, at least one magnet (20) at the proximal end (11), at least a magnetic field to influence the proxima ...

Enhanced audio-tactile multisensory interaction in a peripersonal task after echolocation

Andrea Serino

Peripersonal space (PPS) is created by a multisensory interaction between different sensory modalities and can be modified by experience. In this article, we investigated whether an auditory training, inside the peripersonal space area, can modify the PPS ...

Similarities and differences in the regulation of HoxD genes during chick and mouse limb development

Denis Duboule, Guillaume Andrey, Lucille Delisle, Christopher Chase Bolt, Leonardo Beccari, Nayuta Yakushiji

In all tetrapods examined thus far, the development and patterning of limbs require the activation of gene members of the HoxD cluster. In mammals, they are regulated by a complex bimodal process that controls first the proximal patterning and then the dis ...
