Limb body wall complex (LBWC) is a complex and rare poly-malformative syndrome. We report a case of this syndrome diagnosed antenatally in a 37-year-old primiparous woman, by a first obstetrical ultrasound performed at 22 weeks of amenorrhea and one day. After termination of pregnancy, macroscopic examination revealed a male newborn with all the diagnostic criteria of LBWC.

Background: Advanced technologies are becoming increasingly accessible in rehabilitation. Current research suggests technology can increase therapy dosage, provide multisensory feedback, and reduce manual handling for clinicians. While more high-quality evidence regarding the effectiveness of rehabilitation technologies is needed, understanding of how to effectively integrate technology into clinical practice is also limited.

Humans exploit motor synergies for motor control; however, how they emerge during motor learning is not clearly understood. Few studies have dealt with the computational mechanism for generating synergies. Previously, optimal control generated synergistic motion for the upper limb; however, it has not yet been applied to the high-dimensional whole-body system.

Purpose: The present study is to explore the appropriate plantar support force for its effect on improving the collapse of the medial longitudinal arch with flexible flatfoot.
Methods: A finite element model with the plantar fascia attenuation was constructed simulating as flexible flatfoot. The appropriate plantar support force was evaluated.

Background: Increasing one's walking speed is an important goal in post-stroke gait rehabilitation. Insufficient arm swing in people post-stroke might limit their ability to propel the body forward and increase walking speed.
Purpose: To investigate the speed-dependent changes (and their contributing factors) in the arm swing of persons post-stroke.

Pregnancy-associated changes in melanocytic nevi (MN), apart from size increase on the trunk, remain a topic of debate. We conducted the first prospective study to investigate dermoscopic changes in MN comparing pregnant with non-pregnant women on all body parts using a market-approved convolutional neural network (CNN). We included 25 pregnant and 25 non-pregnant women from Basel, Switzerland, who underwent standard skin cancer screenings and whose MN > 2 mm were digitally recorded and analysed by a CNN.
