Clinical trials

This is a companion real-world external validation study of two pre-registered parent randomized controlled trials (RCTs, protocol IDs: FujianUTCM-1 and FujianUTCM-2). We aim to validate the generalizability and clinical applicability of a pre-developed machine learning prediction model (for Tai Chi intervention cognitive benefit population characteristics and individualized dose prescription) in a real-world community-dwelling population.

This study aims to investigate the effects of motor-cognitive interactive robot-assisted training on improving upper limb motor dysfunction after stroke. By observing different combinations of motor and cognitive components in the training, the study will clarify the relationship between the proportion of motor and cognitive elements and the recovery of upper limb motor function. The goal is to optimize the training protocol for upper limb rehabilitation robots and enhance their therapeutic outcomes. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: motor-cognitive interactive robot-assisted training, motor-focused robot-assisted training, or conventional rehabilitation training. Training sessions will last 60 minutes, occur 5 times per week, and continue for 4 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in upper limb function and monitor for any adverse events during the training.
