Lower limb loss is a major insult to the body's nervous and musculoskeletal systems.
Despite technological advances in prosthesis design, artificial limbs are not yet integrated …

The brain undergoes marked changes in function and functional connectivity after limb
amputation. The agonist-antagonist myoneural interface (AMI) amputation is a procedure …

To maintain postural stability, unilateral lower-limb amputees (LLAs) heavily rely on visual
and vestibular inputs, and somatosensory cues from their intact leg to compensate for …

Objective: Lower limb amputation is common in war combat and armed conflict as well as in
traumatic settings and presents a challenge for health care providers. The incorporation of …

Shoulder disarticulation amputees account for a small portion of upper‐limb amputees, thus
little emphasis has been devoted to developing functional prosthesis for this cohort of …

Background In addition to a range of functional impairments seen in individuals with a lower-
limb amputation, this population is at a substantially elevated risk of falls. Studies postulate …

Precise control of bionic limbs relies on robust decoding of motor commands from nerves or
muscles signals and sensory feedback from artificial limbs to the nervous system by …

Despite advancements in prosthetic technologies, patients with amputation today suffer
great diminution in mobility and quality of life. We have developed a modified below-knee …

The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test quantifies physical mobility by measuring the total
performance time. In this study, we quantified the single TUG subcomponents and, for the …

Mechanisms behind compromised balance control in people with transtibial amputation
need to be further explored, as currently little is known specifically about postural control …
