• We propose that the probability of making either error can be minimized by using grids of
electrode to detect surface EMGs from multiple locations over a target muscle.• With grids of …

Objective The purpose of this study was to detect specific motor unit (MU) abnormalities in
people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) compared to controls using high-density …

Joint trauma induces a presynaptic reflex inhibition termed arthrogenic muscle inhibition
(AMI) that prevents complete activation of muscles. Reduced motor unit (MU) output is a …

Objectives Deficits in muscle performance could be a consequence of a reduced ability of a
motor neuron to increase the rate in which it discharges. This study aimed to investigate …

Background Following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, many athletes that undergo
surgery and 6–9 months of rehabilitation struggle to return to sport. Evidence suggests that …

Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) have greater laterality of muscle contraction
properties than other people with parkinsonism diseases. However, few studies have …

The CNS may produce the same endpoint trajectory or torque profile with different muscle
activation patterns. What differentiates these patterns is the presence of co-contraction …

We examined activation patterns of the gastrocnemius medialis (GM), gastrocnemius
lateralis (GL), soleus (SO), and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles in eight older (58.4±3.3 years) …

Simple Summary Only the two-third of athletes who undergo anterior cruciate ligament
reconstruction (ACLR) return to their pre-injury level and to sports participation. The timing …

Despite squatting being important in strength training and rehabilitation, few studies have
investigated motor unit (MU) behaviour. This study explored the MU behaviour of vastus …
