Evaluation of a Dot -ELIZA for the Diagnosis of Human Hydatid Disease
...Show More Authors

Fourty  -tow   Libyan     patients  with  hydatidosis,  which  were

referred to by the physician for the detection of hydatid cyst by X - rays, Ultrasound and CT-Scan.  The  infection rate  in  females and males was(69% )and (31% )respectively .The highest rate 69% was in the liver, followed by the lung( 23.8%), the brain (4.8%) and kidney

(2.4%).

A total of  42 serum  samples were gathered from Libyan patients infected with hydatidosis, 33 serum samples from patients cases with other parasitic diseases than hydatidosis and 30 serum samples from healthy normal controls and were tested by Dot-ELIZA utilizing antigen B from sheep hydatid fluid, dotted onto nitrocellulose filter discs.lJlg of antigen B per dot, ,serum dilution of 1:800, dilution conjugate of 1:1000 and 45 minutes incubation were found optimal.

The sensitivity and specificity of the tests were 97.7% and 98.4%, respectively for detection hydatidosis. No false positive reaction was observed when 31 sera from healthy subjects were assayed. One case of cross-reactions was observe as for serum from a teaniasis person.

Ant Colony Optimization Based Force-Position Control for Human Lower Limb Rehabilitation Robot
...Show More Authors

The aim of human lower limb rehabilitation robot is to regain the ability of motion and to strengthen the weak muscles. This paper proposes the design of a force-position control for a four Degree Of Freedom (4-DOF) lower limb wearable rehabilitation robot. This robot consists of a hip, knee and ankle joints to enable the patient for motion and turn in both directions. The joints are actuated by Pneumatic Muscles Actuators (PMAs). The PMAs have very great potential in medical applications because the similarity to biological muscles. Force-Position control incorporating a Takagi-Sugeno-Kang- three- Proportional-Derivative like Fuzzy Logic (TSK-3-PD) Controllers for position control and three-Proportional (3-P) controllers for force contr

Comparison study of classification methods of intramuscular electromyography data for non-human primate model of traumatic spinal cord injury
...Show More Authors

Traumatic spinal cord injury is a serious neurological disorder. Patients experience a plethora of symptoms that can be attributed to the nerve fiber tracts that are compromised. This includes limb weakness, sensory impairment, and truncal instability, as well as a variety of autonomic abnormalities. This article will discuss how machine learning classification can be used to characterize the initial impairment and subsequent recovery of electromyography signals in an non-human primate model of traumatic spinal cord injury. The ultimate objective is to identify potential treatments for traumatic spinal cord injury. This work focuses specifically on finding a suitable classifier that differentiates between two distinct experimental
