Long term effects of a wearable neuromuscular device on modifiable risk factors associated with acl injuries in female collegiate athletes during a countermovement jump

TL;DR: No significant difference was found between the control and intervention groups between pre and post testing (p<0.05), and it was hypothesized that the WND group would display decreased VA and increased EMG activity of the four muscles, during a CMJ, when compared to the control group.

Mecanismos neurofisiológicos da aplicação de banda - gem funcional no estímulo somatossensorial Neurophysiological mechanisms of functional banda- ge application in somatosensory stimulation

TL;DR: This review is a description of the neuro-physiological mechanisms of applying bandages KT in stimulating the somatosensory receptors pointing its therapeutic actions in using this method.

Changes in muscle responses to stimulation of the motor cortex induced by peripheral nerve stimulation in human subjects.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in normal human subjects the excitability of the cortical projection to hand muscles can be altered in a manner determined by the peripheral stimulus applied.

The Effects of Kinesio™ Taping on Proprioception at the Ankle

TL;DR: The physiological responses in this study were less severe during a MS test than those reported during an incremental Balke treadmill test, and suggests that MS tests may be an acceptable method to assess the maximal strength of patients with moderate heart failure.

Changes in ankle joint proprioception resulting from strips of athletic tape applied over the skin.

TL;DR: It is concluded that increased cutaneous sensory feedback provided by strips of athletic tape applied across the ankle joint of healthy individuals can help improve ankle joint position perception in nonweightbearing, especially for a midrange plantar-flexed ankle position.

Does taping influence electromyographic muscle activity in the scapular rotators in healthy shoulders

TL;DR: The results of the investigation revealed no significant influence of tape application on EMG activity in the scapular muscles in healthy subjects and future research will be necessary to examine other parameters of neuromuscular control in order to determine possible proprioceptive changes in muscle recruitment with tape application.

Cutaneous stimulation from patella tape causes a differential increase in vasti muscle activity in people with patellofemoral pain

TL;DR: Application of stretch to the skin over VMO via the tape can increase VMO activity, suggesting that cutaneous stimulation may be one mechanism by which patella taping produces a clinical effect.
