Intuitive control based on myoelectric pattern recognition (MPR) can be used in clinical applications such as prosthetic limbs and Phantom Limb Pain treatment. Electromyography (EMG) patterns representing limb movements are learned by a pattern recognition algorithm to enable classification of future EMG observations. These EMG patterns are commonly constituted by descriptive features extracted...

The Dutch Konik is valued from a genetic conservation perspective and also for its role in 12 preservation of natural landscapes. The primary management objective for the captive breeding of 13 this primitive horse is to maintain its genetic purity, whilst also maintaining the nature reserves on 14 which they graze. Breeding selection has traditionally been based on phenotypic characteristics 1...

the oromandibular-limb hypogenesis syndrome comprises a group of anomalies which simultaneously affect the mandible, tongue, and maxilla with or without reductive limb anomalies. it is characterized by failure of development of the intraoral region and distal extremities. multiple and variable deformities of the mandible, maxilla and tongue may occur in combination with a variety of limb defect...

pediatric traumatic limb amputations are rare and their acute and long term management can be challenging in this subgroup of patients. the lengthy and costly hospital stays, and resulting physical and psychological implications leads to significant morbidity. we present a summary of treatment principles and the evidence base supporting the management options for this entity. the initial manage...

introduction: depending on mode, intensity and length of application, and stage of development, the low-frequency electromagnetic fields (lfes) can induce a wide variety of biological effects in organisms. the chick limb bud is a powerful experimental system for study pattern formation in vertebrate embryo. the aim of this study was to examine the effects of an application lfes (50hz, 50g) on c...

[Purpose] The aim of the present study was to perform a systematic review of the literature on the scales and methods most often used for the evaluation of upper limb function in individuals with cerebral palsy. [Materials and Methods] Searches were conducted in the Medline, PEDro, Lilacs, Scielo, and PubMed databases. The following inclusion criteria were used for the selection of articles: ra...
