Alterations in Muscle Networks in the Upper Extremity of Chronic Stroke Survivors
Muscle networks describe the functional connectivity between muscles quantified through the decomposition of intermuscular coherence (IMC) to identify shared frequencies at which certain muscles are co-modulated by common neural input. Efforts have been devoted to characterizing muscle networks in healthy...

Combined Ankle/Knee Stretching and Pivoting Stepping Training for Children With Cerebral Palsy
Although various treatment methods have been investigated to reduce spasticity and intoeing gait in children with cerebral palsy (CP), methods to concurrently reduce an intoeing gait and associated ankle/knee stiffness and spasticity according to a child’s specific needs are lacking....

Learning Patterns of Pivoting Neuromuscular Control Training-Towards a Learning Model
Over the last decades, lower limb therapy using locomotion devices has gained popularity in clinics to improve lower limb functions; however, from these studies, how the learning patterns over the course of a long-term training program change are unknown. Especially,...

Synthesis of Subject-Specific Human Balance Responses Using a Task-Level Neuromuscular Control Platform
Misagh B. Mansouri, Nicolas A. Vivaldi, Cyril J. Donnelly, Mark A. Robinson, Jos Vanrenterghem, Jeffrey A. Reinbolt
Many activities of daily living require a high level of neuromuscular coordination and balance control to avoid falls. Complex musculoskeletal models paired with detailed neuromuscular simulations complement experimental studies and uncover principles of coordinated and uncoordinated movements. Here, we created...

Quantifying Nonlinear Contributions to Cortical Responses Evoked by Continuous Wrist Manipulation
Martijn P. Vlaar, Teodoro Solis-Escalante, Alistair N. Vardy, Frans C. T. van der Helm, Alfred C. Schouten
Cortical responses to continuous stimuli as recorded using either magneto- or electroencephalography (EEG) have shown power at harmonics of the stimulated frequency, indicating nonlinear behavior. Even though the selection of analysis techniques depends on the linearity of the system under...
