A Movement Classification of Polymyalgia Rheumatica Patients Using Myoelectric Sensors.

Gait disorder is common among people with neurological disease and musculoskeletal disorders. The detection of gait disorders plays an integral role in designing appropriate rehabilitation protocols. This study presents a clinical gait analysis of patients with polymyalgia rheumatica to determine impaired gait patterns using machine learning models.

Design Validation of a Low-Cost EMG Sensor Compared to a Commercial-Based System for Measuring Muscle Activity and Fatigue.

Electromyography (EMG) sensors have been used for measuring muscle signals and for diagnosing neuromuscular disease. Available commercial EMG sensor are expensive and not easily available for individuals. The aim of the study is to validate our designed low-cost sensor against a well-known commercial system for measuring muscle activity and fatigue assessment.

Introduction: globally, the ravaging effect of the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), pandemic is evident on public health and the global economy. We aimed at describing the clinical characteristic and management outcome of COVID-19 patients in Abuja, Nigeria.

Methods: we conducted a retrospective study by reviewing the hospital charts of the first 200 COVID-19 patients admitted at the isolation center, University of Abuja Teaching Hospital (UATH), Gwagwalada.

A Review on the Use of Microsoft Kinect for Gait Abnormality and Postural Disorder Assessment.

Gait and posture studies have gained much prominence among researchers and have attracted the interest of clinicians. The ability to detect gait abnormality and posture disorder plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of some diseases. Microsoft Kinect is presented as a noninvasive sensor essential for medical diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.
