    Abstract: A method and system for creating shear stress and endothelial mechanotransduction through neuromuscular stimulation of the muscle pump. Chronic application a minimum of 30 days triggers the autocrine and paracrine processes which elevates production of vasoactive substances including nitric oxide, prostacyclin, superoxide dismutase, thrombomodulin, glutathion, Krupple-like factor 2 and many others. Chronic application also promotes angiogenesis and development of collateral circulation. This is a cost-effective, non-invasive, drug-free therapy to treat vascular dysfunction and ameliorate or reverse its effects on cardiovascular health.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are described for use with measuring circuitry (28) and stimulation circuitry (24) that includes a pair of electrodes (26a, 26b). A controller (22) includes controller circuitry (64). While the electrodes are coupled to a subject's skin, the controller circuitry is configured to execute a stimulation procedure by driving the stimulation circuitry to pass a plurality of stimulating pulses between the pair of electrodes, and to drive the stimulation circuitry to pass one or more reference pulses between the pair of electrodes, the reference pulses being different from each of the stimulating pulses. The controller circuitry receives an impedance between the electrodes that is measured using the reference pulses, and, in response to the impedance measured using the reference pulses, but not in response to any impedance measured using the stimulating pulses, controls the stimulation procedure. Other applications are also described.

    Abstract: Brain impairment, for example due to stroke, is corrected in order to improve body movement. An fNIRS device is positioned over the motor cortex of non-impaired individuals, and blood oxygen in locations of the brain is analyzed to determine brain activity corresponding to a particular body movement. The movements are statistically analyzed, and are compared with fNIRS data gathered from a movement impaired individual attempting the same movement. A weighted value corresponding to the desired brain activity is generated using the statistical analysis, and is graphically displayed to the movement impaired individual during the attempts. This produces a feedback loop relating to the movement which can be repeated to produce brain plasticity in the impaired individual to facilitate the movement. Additionally, correct brain activity can be used to cause the application of an electrical signal to muscles of the body to produce the desired movement.
