Digital health interventions, including Virtual Reality (VR), offer promising alternatives. This study assessed the feasibility, safety, and potential side effects of interactive computer-generated VR (CGVR) for individuals with dementia (IwD), focusing on reaction tests of varying complexity.Methods: In the feasibility study recruited 32 participants with mild to moderate dementia, assessed by the Mini-Mental-State-Examination (MMSE). Participants underwent a single CGVR session involving virtual reaction wall tasks of varying difficulty. Pre- and post-exposure assessments, alongside feedback forms, evaluated cognitive and motor functions, mood, anxiety, and balance (paired t-test).Results: Of the 32 participants, 29 completed the study (9% drop-out). Observational data indicated high levels of engagement and enjoyment. No adverse effects on cognitive or motor functions were observed, with slight non-significant improvements across most parameters. MMSE scores correlated significantly with task feasibility and reaction/motor times, highlighting the influence of cognitive status on performance.Conclusions: CGVR demonstrated high feasibility and acceptability among IwD, with no adverse effects and potential to enhance cognitive and motor skills. Further research is required to explore long-term efficacy and optimize therapeutic applications.","PeriodicalId":43319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Rehabilitation and Assistive Technologies Engineering","volume":"12 ","pages":"20556683251393992"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12660644/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145649604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated their effect on kinematics in individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) compared to regular walking and to walking with an overground BWS system.Methods: Fourteen individuals with iSCI were tested during overground walking in three conditions: regular, exosuit, and BWS. Kinematics were assessed using the Xsens MVN motion capture system.Results: Maximum hip extension was larger for exosuit compared to regular walking (Δ4.7°, 95% CI [1.4, 7.9]), but was not different compared to BWS. Mean knee flexion was smaller for exosuit compared to regular walking (Δ-1.7°, 95% CI [-3.0, -0.4]) and compared to BWS (Δ-3.5°, 95% CI [-5.4, -1.6]). Most secondary outcome measures (e.g. walking speed, stride length, step width, ML COM excursion) showed no differences between exosuit and regular walking. Comparing exosuit to BWS, most secondary outcome measures (e.g., walking speed, stride length, stride time, trunk inclination) favored BWS.Conclusions: An anti-gravity exosuit resulted in increased hip and knee extension, but did not translate into other gait improvements. Given the more favorable outcomes of the BWS system compared to the exosuit, exosuit design improvements are needed to be effectively implemented in gait rehabilitation after iSCI.","PeriodicalId":43319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Rehabilitation and Assistive Technologies Engineering","volume":"12 ","pages":"20556683251375068"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12536207/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145349047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, conversion of raw data into interpretable PA outcomes remains imprecise, and the differentiation between propulsion and non-propulsion is challenging. Using a previously developed algorithm, the objectives of this study were to: (1) measure the accuracy of total distance collected, and (2) validate the algorithm's accuracy in differentiating between self-propulsion and non-propulsion.Methods: Experimental study consisting of two data collection sessions. Actimetry data (Actigraph GT3X+) were collected indoors (controlled conditions) during 100 repetitions (n = 40 MWC propulsion, n = 60 pushing the MWC) over three distances (10, 50 and 100 m). Actimetry data were also collected outdoors (uncontrolled condition) during self-propulsion over 1000 m (10 repetitions). Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) with confidence intervals and accuracy measures (percentage of true value) were conducted for each trial.Results: The algorithm measured total distance covered indoors with an excellent accuracy (98.9% to 99.8%). It differentiated between self-propulsion and non-propulsion with an accuracy between 96.2% and 99.2% under controlled condition, and between 91.3% and 100.0% under uncontrolled condition.Conclusions: The algorithm tested allowed precise measurement of total distance covered, as well as an excellent discrimination between self-propulsion and non-propulsion.Preprint: Gagnon R, Best KL and Routhier F.

A study must have assessed two of spasticity, proprioception, or motor function of the upper limb post-stroke to be included. Random-effects meta-analyses were conducted to investigate changes in time and strength of correlations between variables.Results: Fifty-two studies were included. Over time, spasticity increased (OR = 0.5, p = 0.0475); proprioception and motor function impairments decreased (OR = 3.15, p < 0.0001; OR = 3.21, p < 0.0001, respectively). The correlation between spasticity and proprioception was weak (r = 0.33, p = 0.0283); between proprioception and motor function was moderate (r = 0.45, p < 0.0001); and between spasticity and motor function was moderate (r = 0.55, p < 0.0001).Conclusion: Despite the limitation of heterogeneity in the available evidence, relationships between variables were illustrated.

Propulsion force, which is required to overcome wheel rolling resistance (RR), is a major source of RS. A drum-based RR test method has been developed but has not been directly validated against propulsion forces. A previous validation study compared Drum versus treadmill RR, with excellent consistency (intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 0.94) and accuracy. Methods: Drum RR system estimates (N = 192) were compared to SmartWheel RR measurements and resultant force (Fres) for multiple wheelchair setups and surfaces. We hypothesized that Drum RR will consistently predict SmartWheel RR and Fres based on ICC and accuracy based on Bland Altman limits of agreement (LOA) and coefficient of determination (R2). Results: RR ICC = 0.966, 95%CI [0.955-0.975], mean difference between methods (4.2 N), and LOA [+/-5.5 N], which varied by surface. Drum RR explained 88% (R2) of SmartWheel RR variability. Drum RR prediction of Fres ICC = 0.83, 95%CI [0.77-0.87], explaining 60% of variability. Conclusions: Drum RR consistently predicts SmartWheel RR with excellent reliability and reasonable accuracy, and predicts Fres with good reliability and reasonable accuracy, reinforcing the validity of Drum RR for predicting system-level RR, and use guiding wheel selection to reduce RS.","PeriodicalId":43319,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Rehabilitation and Assistive Technologies Engineering","volume":"12 ","pages":"20556683251374919"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12409041/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145013360","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
