Motoneurons are unique in being the only neurons in the CNS whose firing patterns can be
easily recorded in human subjects. This is because of the one-to-one relationship between …

Individuals with moderate-to-severe post-stroke hemiparesis cannot control proximal and
distal joints of the arm independently because they are constrained to stereotypical …

Objective. Noninvasive estimation of motoneuron excitability in human motoneurons is
achieved through a paired motor unit analysis (ΔF) that quantifies hysteresis in the …

Objective The flexion and extension synergies were quantified at the paretic elbow, forearm,
wrist, and finger joints within the same group of participants for the first time. Differences in …

Essential tremor is a common neurological disorder, characterised by involuntary shaking of
a limb. Patients are usually treated using medications which have limited effects on tremor …

Surface electromyography (EMG) is a noninvasive technique that has the potential to
provide information on how the nervous system controls movement. Nevertheless …

The objective was to re-evaluate the controversial reports of EMG-torque relation between
impaired and non-impaired sides using linear electrode array EMG recordings. Ten subjects …

Transtibial amputation can significantly impact an individual's quality of life including the
completion of activities of daily living. Those with lower limb amputations can harness the …

Individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) demonstrate deficits in muscle activation such as
decreased amplitude and inappropriate bursting. There is evidence that some of these …

Exaggerated stretch-sensitive reflexes are a common finding in elbow flexors of the
contralesional arm in chronic hemiparetic stroke, particularly when muscles are not …
