Empirical Evaluation of Voluntarily Activatable Muscle Synergies [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2017 The muscle synergy hypothesis assumes that individual muscle synergies are independent of each other and voluntarily controllable. However, this assumption has not been empirically tested.

Common muscle synergies for balance and walking [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2013 Little is known about the integration of neural mechanisms for balance and locomotion. Muscle synergies have been studied independently in standing balance and walking, but not compared.

Cortex integrity relevance in muscle synergies in severe chronic stroke [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Background: Recent experimental evidence has indicated that the motor system coordinates muscle activations through a linear combination of muscle synergies that are specified at the spinal or brainstem networks level.

Differences between kinematic synergies and muscle synergies during two-digit grasping [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015 The large number of mechanical degrees of freedom of the hand is not fully exploited during actual movements such as grasping. Usually, angular movements in various joints tend to be coupled, and EMG activities in different hand muscles tend to be ...

Muscle Synergies in Children Walking and Running on a Treadmill
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021 Muscle synergies reflect the presence of a common neural input to multiple muscles. Steering small sets of synergies is commonly believed to simplify the control of complex motor tasks like walking and running. When these locomotor patterns emerge, it is

Association between Slip Severity and Muscle Synergies of Slipping
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017 Falls impose significant negative impacts to the US population and economy. A significant number of falls may be prevented via appropriate slip-responses since a strong relation exists between slips and falls.

The role of the neuromuscular control mechanism in motor output : do individuals share muscle activation features? [PDF]
, 2011 Although walking is a constrained movement, there is variation in the muscle recruitment patterns. The processed wavelet-based electromyogram (EMG) [von Tscharner (2000)] signals indicated that the task structure contained in walking doesn’t prescribe ...

Features of muscle synergies of the upper limb, in healthy subjects and after stroke: literature review [PDF]
, 2022 openBackground e obiettivi: L'impairment dell’arto superiore rappresenta, per l’incompletezza del recupero e l’impatto sulla qualità di vita che ne deriva, un aspetto di rilievo nei soggetti con diagnosi di ictus.
DE SANTIS, ELENOIRE JOSEPHINE
core
Applied Sciences, 2022 Muscle synergy theory assumes that the central nervous system generates a wide range of complex motor outputs by recruiting muscle synergies with different strengths and timings.
