Reeducating Muscle Force Control in Older Persons through Strength Training

TL;DR: In conjunction with muscular weakness, older adults demonstrate impaired control of movements requiring submaximal force as mentioned in this paper, and this neuromuscular adaptation has been shown to improve performance of sit-to-stand and gait tasks in frail elders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Free-water and free-water corrected fractional anisotropy in primary and premotor corticospinal tracts in chronic stroke.

TL;DR: Differences in FAT in nonlesioned tissue were small and generally similar between hemispheres and groups, suggesting that FW may be a robust biological measurement that can be used to assess microstructure in residual white matter after stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI

Can Measured Synergy Excitations Accurately Construct Unmeasured Muscle Excitations

TL;DR: The results suggest that synergy excitations obtained from experimentally measured muscle excitations can accurately construct unmeasured Muscle excitations, which could help limit muscle excitation solutions predicted by muscle force optimizations.
Journal ArticleDOI

How Well Do Commonly Used Co-contraction Indices Approximate Lower Limb Joint Stiffness Trends During Gait for Individuals Post-stroke?

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the feasibility of using two common CCIs to approximate lower limb joint stiffness trends during gait and found that CCI1 was generally more correlated with joint stiffness than was CCI2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Short Intracortical Inhibition During Voluntary Movement Reveals Persistent Impairment Post-stroke.

TL;DR: SICI during motor activity, but not rest, reveals persistent impairment in chronic stroke survivors indicating that inhibitory brain circuits responsible for motor coordination do not fully normalize as part of the natural history of stroke recovery.
