1. The data-driven CyberSpine : Modeling the Epidural Electrical Stimulation using Finite Element Model and Artificial Neural Networks
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Every year, 250,000 people worldwide suffer a spinal cord injury (SCI) that leaves them with chronic paraplegia - permanent loss of ability to move their legs. SCI interrupts axons passing along the spinal cord, thereby isolating motor neurons from brain inputs. To date, there are no effective treatments that can reconnect these interrupted axons. READ MORE

2. The effects of IL-4 and IL-13 on human airway smooth muscle
University essay from KTH/ProteinvetenskapAbstract : Typ 2-cytokiner, IL-4 och IL-13 är kända för att spela en viktig roll i airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) eller luftvägshyperreaktivitet, där de glatta muskelcellerna (ASM) drar ihop sig för lätt och för mycket som svar på direkta eller indirekta stimuli. Detta gör AHR till en avgörande egenskap hos astmatiker. READ MORE

3. Measurements of biomechanical workload onthe forearm during padel : a pilot study
University essay from Umeå universitet/Avdelningen för idrottsmedicinAbstract : Padel involves repetitive and high-velocity upper limb movements, which can be associated with overuse injuries. There is a lack of evidence regarding injury prevention in padel and a necessity of developing and evaluating ways to monitor workload. READ MORE

4. The impact of ion drift in a Transcutaneous Electrical Stimulation model
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknikAbstract : A major area of research in neuroscience is the effect of stimulating nerves into activation from extrinsic stimuli. This is commonly done with electric currents and external skin-contact electrodes. READ MORE

5. High density EMG based estimation of lower limb muscle characteristics using feature extraction
University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)Abstract : Electromyography (EMG) is a common tool in electrical muscle activity measurement and can be used in multiple areas of clinical and biomedical applications, mainly in identifying neuromuscular diseases, analyzing movement or in human machine interfaces. Traditionally a pair of electrodes were used to measure the signals, but in recent years the use of high density surface EMG (HD-sEMG) gained more popularity as it can sample myoelectric activities from multiple electrodes in an array on a single muscle and provide more information.
