Can Proprioceptive Training Reduce Muscle Fatigue in Patients With Motor Neuron Diseases? A New Direction of Treatment

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Muscle fatigue is a serious problem in patients with motor neuron diseases (MNDs). It commonly disturbs both daily life activity and rehabilitation tolerance. A particular concern should be taken when MNDs occur in older ages.

Toward a wearable monitor of local muscle fatigue during electrical muscle stimulation using tissue Doppler imaging

open access: yesWearable Technologies, 2022
Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) is widely used in rehabilitation and athletic training to generate involuntary muscle contractions. However, EMS leads to rapid muscle fatigue, limiting the force a muscle can produce during prolonged use.

Fatigue of the respiratory muscles

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine, 1996
The word "fatigue" has several meanings: in daily life, it is often used to express tiredness or weakness, whereas a technical definition may also include impaired intellectual or motor performance, increased EMG activity for a given performance, shift of the EMG power spectrum to lower frequencies, and/or the inability of muscle to generate force.

Motor strategy during postural control is not muscle fatigue joint-dependent, but muscle fatigue increases postural asymmetry.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ankle and hip muscle fatigue on motor adjustments (experiment 1) and symmetry (experiment 2) of postural control during a quiet standing task.

Influence of lumbar muscle fatigue on trunk adaptations during sudden external perturbations

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
IntroductionWhen the spine is subjected to perturbations, neuromuscular responses such as reflex muscle contractions contribute to the overall balance control and spinal stabilization mechanisms.

Effect of exercise-induced muscle fatigue on reaction times under postural perturbation conditions in individuals with and without chronic low back pain

open access: yesFrontiers in Sports and Active Living
BackgroundTotal reaction time (TRT), composed of premotor time (PMT) and electromechanical delay (EMD), is susceptible to muscle fatigue and can be affected by pain.

Effect of Muscle Fatigue on Surface Electromyography-Based Hand Grasp Force Estimation

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2021
Surface electromyography- (sEMG-) based hand grasp force estimation plays an important role with a promising accuracy in a laboratory environment, yet hardly clinically applicable because of physiological changes and other factors.

The Effect of Fatigued External Rotator Muscles of the Shoulder on the Shoulder Position Sense

open access: yesi-Perception, 2011
This study aimed to investigate the effect of fatigue in shoulder external rotator muscles on position sense of shoulder abduction, internal rotation, and external rotation. The study included 10 healthy subjects.

Effect of Inspiratory Muscle Training on Exercise Tolerance in Asthmatic Individuals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on exercise tolerance, inspiratory muscle fatigue, and the perception of dyspnea in asthmatic individuals. Using a matched double-blind placebo-controlled design, 15
