The combined effects of cervical electrical stimulation alone or in combination with the
monoaminergic agonist buspirone on upper limb motor function were determined in six …

Paired associative corticospinal-motoneuronal stimulation (PCMS) induces plasticity at
synapses between corticospinal tracts (CSTs) and spinal motoneurons (SMs). We …

Other than clinical examination, few methods exist for assessing the functional condition of
descending long tracts of the spinal cord in humans. This review covers neurophysiological …

Objectives Epidural spinal cord stimulation (eSCS) has shown promise for restoring some
volitional motor control after spinal cord injury (SCI). Maximizing therapeutic response …

Background and Purpose: Evidence suggests that the use of stimulation to increase
corticomotor excitability improves hand function in persons with cervical spinal cord injury …

Key points In uninjured humans, transmission in the corticospinal pathway changes in a task‐
dependent manner during movement preparation. We investigated whether this ability is …

While previous studies have assessed changes in corticospinal excitability following
voluntary contraction coupled with electrical stimulation (ES), we sought to examine, for the …

Background Exercise after paralysis can help prevent secondary health complications, but
achieving adequate exercise volumes and intensities is difficult with loss of motor control …

Objectives: To evaluate impact of first therapy session, containing functional electrical
stimulation (FES) and therapeutic exercises (TE) on erector spinae (ES) and rectus …

Purpose: Neural adaptations to strength training have long been recognized, but knowledge
of mechanisms remains incomplete. Using novel techniques and a design which limited …
