    Abstract Objective: The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate the performance of RPC-Net (Recursive Prosthetic Control Network), a novel method using simple neural network architectures to translate electromyographic activity into hand position with high accuracy and computational efficiency.
    Methods: RPC-Net uses a regression-based approach to convert forearm electromyographic signals into hand kinematics. We tested the adaptability of the algorithm to different conditions and compared its performance with that of solutions from the academic literature.
    Results: RPC-Net demonstrated a high degree of accuracy in predicting hand position from electromyographic activity, outperforming other solutions with the same computational cost. Including previous position data consistently improved results across subjects and conditions. RPC-Net showed robustness against a reduction in the number of electromyography electrodes used and shorter input signals, indicating potential for further reduction in computational cost.
    Conclusion: The results demonstrate that RPC-Net is capable of accurately translating forearm electromyographic activity into hand position, offering a practical and adaptable tool that may be accessible in clinical settings.
    Significance: The development of RPC-Net represents a significant advancement. In clinical settings, its application could enable prosthetic devices to be controlled in a way that feels more natural, improving the quality of life for individuals with limb loss.

    Abstract Novel impedance-pH parameters, Mean Nocturnal Baseline Impedance (MNBI) and Post-Reflux Swallow-Induced Peristaltic Wave (PSPW) index, have been proposed to improve the gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) diagnostic yield. This study aims to determine the integrity of the esophageal epithelial barrier and chemical clearance using these novel parameters and to correlate them with acid exposure time (AET) and acid clearance time (ACT) in obese patients who are candidates for bariatric surgery (BS). Twenty impedance-pHmetry tracings of patients prior to BS were reviewed. Nine (45%) patients with a conclusive diagnosis of GERD had significantly higher ACT, lower MNBI in the distal esophagus and lower PSPW indexes compared to obese patients without GERD. Moreover, 100% of obese patients with GERD had a pathological ACT compared to obese patients without GERD (

    Abstract Background: The association between sleep disorders and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) has been the subject of several studies; however, quality of sleep has been under investigated in adult patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and achalasia (Ach). This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of sleep disturbances in patients with EoE and Ach compared to GERD patients and their associations with esophageal symptoms.
    Methods: Thirty Ach patients and 20 EoE patients were consecutively enrolled and compared to a control group of 46 GERD patients. All patients underwent a standardized questionnaire investigating the intensity-frequency scores (from 0 to 6) of esophageal symptoms, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire to assess sleep quality, a SF-36 survey to investigate health-related quality of life (both physical (PCS) and mental (MCS) component scales), Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) to assess the presence of depression and anxiety.
    Results: The prevalence of sleep disturbances was 66.7% in Ach, 50% in EoE, and 60% in GERD patients (P=0.5). PCS and MCS significantly correlated with depression and anxiety levels. Ach patients showed significantly higher intensity-frequency scores of dysphagia for solids (Scheffè P<0.001) and liquids (Scheffè P<0.001) than EoE and GERD patients. No differences were found in the intensity-frequency scores of the esophageal symptoms among the three groups. There was a significant association between worst quality of sleep and higher intensity-frequency scores of regurgitation.
    Conclusions: Sleep disturbances are common with Ach and EoE, similar to GERD patients. Moreover, there is a significant association between regurgitation, a typical GERD symptom, and poor quality of sleep, independent from diagnosis.
