Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) generates contractions by depolarising axons
beneath the stimulating electrodes. The depolarisation of motor axons produces …

The manner in which motoneurons respond to excitatory and inhibitory inputs depends
strongly on how their intrinsic properties are influenced by the neuromodulators serotonin …

Persistent inward currents (PICs) are crucial for initiation, acceleration, and maintenance of
motoneuron firing. As PICs are highly sensitive to synaptic inhibition and facilitated by …

Contrary to other widespread forms of electrical stimulation, such as transcutaneous
electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and functional electrical stimulation (FES) …

The purpose of the present study was to examine the possible inhibitory effect of passive
plantar flexor muscle stretching on the motoneuron facilitatory system. Achilles tendon …

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) can be delivered over a nerve trunk or muscle
belly and both can generate contractions through peripheral and central pathways …

Evidence from preclinical and clinical research suggest that neuromodulation technologies
can facilitate the sublesional spinal networks, isolated from supraspinal commands after …

The modulation of the neural output to forelimb and hindlimb muscles when the left and right
sides step at different speeds from one another in quadrupeds was assessed by obtaining …

The purposes of this study were to determine whether performing dynamic conditioning
activities (CAs) contributes to postactivation potentiation (PAP); to examine the potential …

Objective In contrast to conventional (CONV) neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES),
the use of “wide-pulse, high-frequencies”(WPHF) can generate higher forces than expected …
