Screening the paralysed body. by Sng, Charlene Hui Ling.

“…As such, I believe that film (as an audiovisual medium) can engage the spectator (at the moment of viewing) in an embodied experience like paralysis in a number of ways. Like Robert F. Murphy relates in The Body Silent, I hope to help others better understand the embodied experience of paralysis, so as to create awareness that disability “is not simply a physical affair…it is…[an] ontology, a condition of…being in the world” (Murphy 90). …”

Recurrence quantification analysis of body response to functional electrical stimulation on hemiplegic subjects by Acharya, U. Rajendra, Yu, Wenwei, Chattopadhyay, Subhagata, Zhu, Kuanyi, Ng, Eddie Yin-Kwee, Swapna, Goutham

“…Hemiplegia means paralysis of half of the body. It commonly occurs following "stroke", which is due to impedance of blood supply to the brain, hence also termed as "cerebrovascular accident" (CVA). …”

Low-power machine learners for implantable decoding by Shaikh, Shoeb Dawood

“…Approximately 6 million people in the US and roughly 1 in 50 people worldwide suffer from paralysis. Intracortical brain machine interfaces (iBMIs) have shown promise in aiding movement, self-feeding and communication abilities of these severely motor-impaired patients. iBMIs essentially take neural activity as an input, which is then subjected to signal processing and neural decoding, in order to drive prosthetics. …”

Experimental analysis of mechanisms of late neurulation in a model of embryonic zebrafish by Sin, Melvin Wai Loong

“…There is a wide range of range of diseases resulting from neural tube defects, causing a wide range of neurological complications, from as minor as numbness to as severe as paralysis or even fatality in neonatal. In this project, we used several transgenic Zebrafish ET lines to study the development of components of the neural tube, mainly the roof plate cells, central canal and floor plate cells. …”

Mechatronic design and interface EMG based exoskeleton by Pujianto, Yohanes Nico

“…In the recent year, stroke has been one of the major cause of disability among adults. Hemiparesis or paralysis on one side of the body is the most common disability when there is an interruption in the blood flow to the brain cells. …”

DDoS attack detection and mitigation with sFlow-based SDN system by Xu, Congjian

“…Since the functions of the SDN control plane are highly concentrated in the SDN controller, such a high degree of centralization brings more vulnerability to attacks and leads to the paralysis of the entire network, such as DDoS attacks. …”

3D human reconstruction for monitoring and predicting rehab therapeutic exercise by Bian, Hengwei

“…Stroke is a debilitating condition that can result in hemiplegia, a type of paralysis that affects one side of the body. However, evaluating the recovery of hemiplegic patients can be a complex process as existing assessment methods are often subjective and prone to errors. …”

Design and development of a human exoskeleton for rehabilitation by Tan, Wee Keat.

“…This report documents the design and development of a human exoskeleton meant to be used for assistive walking during rehabilitation, in particular for stroke patients who are suffering from partial paralysis of the lower limbs. An existing prototype (Exoskeleton Version I) was studied and evaluated to identify design flaws and investigate their root causes. …”

Analysis of kinematic and muscular synergies as assessment tools during rehabilitative robotic training by Budhota, Aamani

“…Depending on the location and severity of the lesion, it results in different neurological deficits in motion, sensation, cognition, and emotion affecting their activities of daily living (ADL). Hemiparesis (paralysis on one side of the body) that affects 80% stroke survivors is the major post-stroke motor deficit. …”
