Sit-to-stand (STS) motion is an important daily activity, and many post-stroke patients have
difficulty performing STS motion. Previous studies found that there are four muscle synergies …

Abnormal muscle synergies during sit-to-stand (STS) transitions have been observed post-
stroke, which are associated with deteriorated lower-limb function and mobility. Although …

Background Physiological evidence suggests that the nervous system controls motion by
using a low-dimensional synergy organization for muscle activation. Because the muscle …

Post-stroke patients exhibit distinct muscle activation electromyography (EMG) features in sit-
to-stand (STS) due to motor deficiency. Muscle activation amplitude, related to muscle …

Standing-up motion is an important daily activity. It has been known that elderly and post-
stroke patients have difficulty in performing standing-up motion. The standing-up motion is …

BACKGROUND: Stroke subjects show poorer sit-to-stand (STS) performance when
compared to matched-healthy subjects, but it is still unclear the trunk role in this poorer …

Abstract Cheng PT, Chen CL, Wang CM, Hong WH: Leg muscle activation patterns of sit-to-
stand movement in stroke patients. Am J Phys Med Rehabil 2004; 83: 10–16. Objective To …

This study was undertaken to explore whether we could provide supportive laboratory
evidence for the clinical observations that a stroke patient has lost functional …

Objective The aim of this study was to detect the key changes during sit-to-stand (STS)
movement cycle in hemiparetic stroke survivors using a five-phase kinematic and kinetic …

Objective: To evaluate whether Parkinsonian patients could modify the speed of a sit-to-
stand (STS) task to the same extent as that of healthy subjects. Methods: Twenty …
