Effects of H-Reflex Onset Latency on Gait in Elderly and Hemiplegic Individuals [PDF]
Background and Objectives: The Hoffmann’s reflex (H-reflex) is important in electrodiagnostic testing because it improves sensitivity and specificity in diagnosing radiculopathies.

Neurophysiological Changes in Post Stroke Spasticity Patients
Background: A stroke is a serious life-threatening medical condition that occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is disrupted. Spasticity is a state, in which, there is an increase in muscle tone or stiffness, which might be associated with ...

Effects of age and leg length upon central loop of the Gastrocnemius-soleus H-reflex latency
Background central loop of the gastrocnemius-soleus H-reflex latency (Tc) that looks promising in the diagnosis of S1 radiculopathy; has been investigated in a few studies and only two of them have focused on the constitutional factors affecting it ...

Background Based on our clinical experience, the H-reflex amplitude asymmetry might be an earlier sign of nerve root involvement than latency in patients with S1 radiculopathy. However, no data to support this assumption are available.

Effects of inhibitory pressure on tone: An experimental study. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION : Tone is defined as the resistance of muscle to passive elongation or stretch. It is also said to be in a state of readiness. It represents the residual contractions in normally innervated resting muscle or steady state contractions ...

Effects of ageing and Tai Chi training on soleus H-reflex in older adults
The Hoffmann reflex (H-reflex) is used to investigate the influence of Ia afferent projection on the spinal motoneuron activities. It has been suggested that the H-reflex is task-dependent and demonstrates adaptations to exercise training.

To control muscle force, neural activation has to take alterations in muscle mechanics into account. This thesis assesses modulations in excitatory efficacy of Ia-afferents during muscle length changes at different levels of voluntary activation and ...
