Single leg vertical jump performance identifies knee function deficits at return to sport after ACL reconstruction in male athletes
Objectives Vertical jump performance (height) is a more representative metric for knee
function than horizontal hop performance (distance) in healthy individuals. It is not known …

Electrical spinal cord stimulation must preserve proprioception to enable locomotion in humans with spinal cord injury
Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the spinal cord restores locomotion in animal models
of spinal cord injury but is less effective in humans. Here we hypothesized that this …
