PLoS ONE, 2022 In post-stroke patients, muscle synergy (the coordination of motor modules during walking) is impaired. In some patients, the muscle synergy termed module 1 (hip/knee extensors) is merged with module 2 (ankle plantar flexors), and in other cases, module ...

Quantitative evaluation of muscle synergy models: a single-trial task decoding approach
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2013 Muscle synergies, i.e. invariant coordinated activations of groups of muscles, have been proposed as building blocks that the central nervous system uses to construct the patterns of muscle activity utilized for executing movements.

PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibition in combination with doxorubicin is an effective therapy for leiomyosarcoma. [PDF]
, 2016 BackgroundLeiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a common type of soft tissue sarcoma that responds poorly to standard chemotherapy. Thus the goal of this study was to identify novel selective therapies that may be effective in leiomyosarcoma by screening cell lines ...

Are muscle synergies useful for neural control? [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2013 The observation that the activity of multiple muscles can be well approximated by a few linear synergies is viewed by some as a sign that such low-dimensional modules constitute a key component of the neural control system. Here, we argue that the usefulness of muscle synergies as a control principle should be evaluated in terms of errors produced not ...

Evidence of muscle synergies during human grasping [PDF]
Biological Cybernetics, 2013 Motor synergies have been investigated since the 1980s as a simplifying representation of motor control by the nervous system. This way of representing finger positional data is in particular useful to represent the kinematics of the human hand. Whereas, so far, the focus has been on kinematic synergies, that is common patterns in the motion of the ...

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Objectives: Previous studies showed that the central nervous system (CNS) controls movements by recruiting a low-dimensional set of modules, usually referred to as muscle synergies. Stroke alters the structure and recruitment patterns of muscle synergies,

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. Here, we hypothesized that reactive balance and walking are mediated by a common set of lower-limb muscle synergies.

Applying muscle synergy analysis to forearm high-density electromyography of healthy people
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 IntroductionMuscle synergy is regarded as a motor control strategy deployed by the central nervous system (CNS). Clarifying the modulation of muscle synergies under different strength training modes is important for the rehabilitation of motor-impaired ...
