The Hoffmann reflex (H‐reflex) is extensively used as both a research and clinical tool. The
ease with which this reflex can be elicited in several muscles throughout the body makes it …

The loss of walking after human spinal cord injury has been attributed to the dominance of
supraspinal over spinal mechanisms. The evidence for central pattern generation in humans …

Spinal cord injury results in marked modification and reorganization of several reflex
pathways caudal to the injury. The sudden loss or disruption of descending input engenders …

We examined the amplitude modulation of the soleus (Sol) H-reflex during controlled
variations of the hip joint angle in 21 healthy adult human subjects. Hip angle variations …

The present work investigated the control of upright posture on inclined surfaces (14°). Such
conditions could, for example, change the contributions of muscle spindles resulting in …

Body weight–supported (BWS) robotic-assisted step training on a motorized treadmill is
utilized with the aim to improve walking ability in people after damage to the spinal cord …

Somatosensory feedback from peripheral receptors dynamically interacts with networks
located in the spinal cord and brain to control mammalian locomotion. Although …

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of loading and unloading of the lower limb joints on
the soleus H-reflex in standing humans. METHODS: H-reflexes were elicited in the soleus …

The mammalian lumbar spinal cord experimentally isolated from supraspinal and afferent
feedback input remains capable of expressing some basic locomotor function when …

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of prolonged standing on gait
characteristics in children with spastic cerebral palsy. Six children with spastic cerebral palsy …
