Comparative Effects of Perturbation and Functional Stabilization Training on Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome
The main objective of this study is to determine the comparative effects of perturbation and functional stabilization training on pain, balance, and performance in athletes with patellofemoral pain syndrome(PFPS). Patellofemoral pain syndrome is one of the well known causes of anterior knee joint pain. Proximal and distal joint muscle imbalances …

BCI-FES Therapy for Stroke Rehabilitation
BCI technology enables "direct brain control" of external devices such as assistive devices and prostheses by translating brain waves into control signals. When BCI systems are integrated with functional electrical stimulation (FES) systems, they can be used to deliver a novel physical therapy to improve movement after stroke. BCI-FES systems …

Isoleucine Intake and Intermediary Metabolism in Type 2 Diabetes
Functional performance via six-minute walk and balance board measurement will also be tested with and without sensory augmentation via electrical stimulation of foot. Changes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) mitochondrial respiration values will also be assessed between subject types and for diabetic after the 10-day supplementation period.

Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery for Movement Disorders
Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an approved surgery for certain movement disorders, like Parkinson's disease, that do not respond well to other treatments. DBS uses a battery-powered device called a neurostimulator (like a pacemaker) that is placed under the skin in the chest. It is used to stimulate the …
