Human limb amputation following severe injuries or bacterial infection caused by accidents, vascular diseases and diabetes has significant impact to the well-being of a person. Limb amputation is usually replaced by prostheses to restore the look of the limb as well as the basic function of the missing limb that can assist patient on activities of

Robotic training platform are sought out for their promising therapeutic assistance. However, distinctive advancement has yet to resolve the monotonous and lopsided aspect of current system. Thus, this paper proposes the integration of Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS)-based assessment with dynamic impedance control model, presenting an artificial comp

Restoring human body that is lost during accident with prosthetic unit is one challenging issue in engineering field. The loss of human body, involving upper and lower limbs leaves great impact on human that it can limit daily activities in many ways. There are many studies that have been done previously in making and improving prosthetic unit for

Overweight adolescents appear to be at particular risk of developing body dissatisfaction because their body image and shape deviate further from the cultural standard of body ideal. Previous studies suggested that body image can be studied in four different domains that include perceptua l, cognitive, affective and behavioral. Therefore, this phen

Latent transforming growth factor-β-1 binding protein-2 (LTBP-2) belongs to the LTBP-fibrillin superfamily of extracellular proteins. Unlike other LTBPs, LTBP-2 does not covalently bind transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) but appears to be implicated in the regulation of TGF-β1 bioactivity, although the mechanisms are largely unknown. In exp

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is known to be the imaging modality of choice to assess human muscles anatomy superior to other modalities (eg: ultrasound and CT scan) due to its excellent ability to differentiate soft tissue contrast, good spatial resolution and wider field of view with no radiation effect. To date, proton Density (PD), T1W and T

Microblogging sites allowing disseminating distasteful content. This has become vigorous and nearly unstoppable now. Spreading online fake news has been identified as one of the major top concern of online abuse. Due to the difficulty in preventing and evaluating what does fake news contain prior to publishing it online, if an algorithm is known fo

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a major cause of disability and significantly reduce quality of life (QOL). Even though KOA is one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal disorders in Malaysia2, there is limited information about knee associated problems and functional mobility among Malaysian adults with KOA. The aim of this study was to examine knee a

Background: Significant interactions between drugs, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) circuits and critical illness may affect the pharmacokinetic properties of antibiotics in critically ill patients receiving ECMO. Objective: To describe the pharmacokinetic properties of ciprofloxacin during ECMO by integrating pre-clinical findings (ie,
