Changes in Spatiotemporal Variability of Muscular Response under the Influence of Post-stroke Spasticity

Changes in Spatiotemporal Variability of Muscular Response under the Influence of Post-stroke Spasticity 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Spasticity is characterized by involuntary muscle activation due to the hyperexcitability of the stretch reflex. However, the temporal pattern and spatial heterogeneity of motor unit recruitment in this activation are… read more

Personalized Alpha-Motoneuron Pool Models Driven by Neural Data Encode the Mechanisms Controlling Rate of Force Development

Personalized Alpha-Motoneuron Pool Models Driven by Neural Data Encode the Mechanisms Controlling Rate of Force Development 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
The central nervous system employs distinct motor control strategies depending on task demands. Accordingly, the activity of alpha-motoneuron (MN) pools innervating skeletal muscle fibers is modulated based on muscle force… read more

Fine-Wire Electromyography Response to Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in the Triceps Surae 556 235 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)

Abstract Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) has previously been used to enhance venous return from the lower leg. By artificially activating lower leg muscles, venous blood may be effectively ejected from…
