One approach:
str = 'subject1_EO';
nrc = regexp(str, '\d+', 'match')
nr = str2double(nrc{:})
producing:
nrc =
1×1 cell array
{'1'}
nr =
1

+1 a cunning use of a comma-separated list combined with the demand-driven output of nested functions. Explicit indexing is clearer though:
nr = str2double(nrc{1})
