Low-cost active electromyography
Electromyography (sEMG) is the technique applied to measure the bio-potential signal produced by a contracting skeletal muscle. sEMG has been used for subject intention estimation, force estimation, limb angle estimation and determining muscle activation

Electromyographic techniques are extremely useful when there is only minimal denervation, in the detection of early lower motor neurone regeneration, and in the diagnosis of rare syndromes such as myotonia and myasthenia gravis. Another use of electromyography is the detection of isolated motor unit potentials which may provide evidence of the ...

ABSTRACT Objectives Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non‐invasive brain stimulation strategy with a demonstrated potential to reinforce the residual pathways after a spinal cord injury (SCI). A preclinically tested high‐frequency (15 Hz) rTMS (15 Hz rTMS) protocol was shown to induce corticospinal tract axon regeneration growth ...

The basics of electromyography [PDF]
Electromyography (EMG), the recording of electrical activity in muscle, should be regarded as an extension of the clinical examination. It can distinguish myopathic from neurogenic muscle wasting and weakness. It can detect abnormalities such as chronic denervation or fasciculations in clinically normal muscle.

Efgartigimod Combined With Steroid Treatment for HAM/TSP: A Case Report
ABSTRACT HTLV‐1‐associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a progressive neurological disorder with limited treatment options. We report a 54‐year‐old female with decade‐long, progressive HAM/TSP, previously refractory to rituximab, who experienced worsening spastic paraparesis and neurogenic bladder dysfunction.

Use of surface electromyography in phonation studies: an integrative review
Summary Introduction: Surface electromyography has been used to assess the extrinsic laryngeal muscles during chewing and swallowing, but there have been few studies assessing these muscles during phonation.

Electromyography data for non-invasive naturally-controlled robotic hand prostheses
Recent advances in rehabilitation robotics suggest that it may be possible for hand-amputated subjects to recover at least a significant part of the lost hand functionality. The control of robotic prosthetic hands using non-invasive techniques is still a

putEMG—A Surface Electromyography Hand Gesture Recognition Dataset [PDF]
In this paper, we present a putEMG dataset intended for the evaluation of hand gesture recognition methods based on sEMG signal. The dataset was acquired for 44 able-bodied subjects and include 8 gestures (3 full hand gestures, 4 pinches and idle).

ABSTRACT Background Stroke is a leading cause of long‐term disability in adults, with upper limb hemiparesis being a common impairment. Traditional training is mostly aimed at paralyzed limbs, but the effect of bilateral training is still unclear.
