Contexte Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease caused by the presence of antibodies directed against components of the muscle membrane located at the neuromuscular junction. In the majority of cases, these are autoantibodies directed against the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). ...
In this post, we will continue to explore publicly available datasets surrounding Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), a devastating neuromuscular degenerative disease for which there is no cure. If you’re not a neuroscientist and want to quickly get up to speed on the important biological themes in ALS, you may find the knowledge map in our first post helpful. ...

Several improvements support the hypothesis that dynamic standing using the Innowalk is effective as an add-on to standard therapy in the treatment of children and young people with severe motor impairments. The study included 46 patients where 50% were diagnosed with cerebral palsy and 50% with diverse syndromes. The results show improvements on: Passive assisted motion (79%) Stimulation ...
Possible causes include musculoskeletal problems (such as leg weakness), neuromuscular problems (e.g., Parkinson’s disease) or sensory impairments (e.g., somatosensory deficit). ...
Research paper related to ResPower Respiratory Neuromuscular Stimulator was accepted by ERS International Congress Respiratory Neuromuscular Stimulator was used in clinical research in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University and Tianjin Chest Hospital. ...
Objective To investigate the rehabilitation value of respiratory neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation. In Pulmonary Rehabilitation of COPD patients. ...
The pelvic floor physical therapy system is a therapeutic method that uses physical therapy concepts to recondition the pelvic floor muscles in a systematic, effective, and safe manner. The treatment’s purpose is to increase the strength and function of the pelvic floor muscles, as well as to relieve discomfort, weakness, and inefficiency. A qualified physical therapist accesses the muscles ...
Low movement velocity values are indicative of neuromuscular deficiencies caused by stroke, Parkinson’s disease, among other age-related disorders. ...
Abstract Background Impaired neuromuscular control and degeneration of the multifidus muscle have been linked to the development of refractory chronic low back pain (CLBP). ...
As I have matured in my profession, I have distanced myself more and more from modalities (I cannot remember the last time I used an ultrasound or electrical stim unit), and relied more on more on my own two hands, neuromuscular re-education and prescriptive exercise to help resolve my patients’ issues. ...
Part II: Understanding familial and sporadic ALS Welcome to our newest blog series where we investigate Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) using our AI knowledge mapping tools. Check back for our next installment, in which we analyze transcriptomics from spinal cord samples collected from patients as well as a mouse model. In this second post in our Exploring ALS series, we will begin to dig ...

Chronology November 2015, Respiratory neuromuscular stimulator was officially launched. August 2017, Respiratory neuromuscular stimulator was rated as an innovative medical device by the Beijing Drug Administration. ...
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a recessive neuromuscular disorder caused by the homozygous loss of the SMN1 gene. The human SMN2 gene has a C-to-T transition at position +6 of exon 7 and thus produces exon 7-skipping mRNAs. ...
