Effects of acute fatigue on the volitional and magnetically-evoked electromechanical delay of the knee flexors in males and females [PDF]
Neuromuscular performance capabilities, including those measured by evoked responses, may be adversely affected by fatigue; however, the capability of the neuromuscular system to initiate muscle force rapidly under these circumstances is yet to be ...

Stimulus Threshold for Providing Intraoperative Motor Evoked Potential
Aim:Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IOM) has been increasingly used in surgeries associated with a risk of neurological impairment. Motor evoked potential (MEP), which is a part of intraoperative neurophysiological tests, evaluates motor ...

Physical Activity Modulates Corticospinal Excitability of the Lower Limb in Young and Old Adults [PDF]
Aging is associated with reduced neuromuscular function, which may be due in part to altered corticospinal excitability. Regular physical activity (PA) may ameliorate these age-related declines, but the influence of PA on corticospinal excitability is ...

The Impact of the Perception of Primary Facial Emotions on Corticospinal Excitability
The link between emotional experience and motor body responses has long been acknowledged. A well-established approach to exploring the effect of the perception of emotional stimuli on the motor system is measuring variations in the excitability of the ...

Motor imagery and electrical stimulation reproduce corticospinal excitability at levels similar to voluntary muscle contraction [PDF]
BackgroundThe combination of voluntary effort and functional electrical stimulation (ES) appears to have a greater potential to induce plasticity in the motor cortex than either electrical stimulation or voluntary training alone. However, it is not clear
