Abnormal Air-Righting Reflex in Striatal Rats
To understand dynamic postural control of the higher brain, we compared air-righting reflexes in various decerebrate rats. Post-operative 3-5 d thalamic and mesencephalic rats displayed almost similar righting movements as intact. However, in striatal animals, coordination of righting movements was disrupted.

Recruitment curve of the soleus H-reflex in chronic back pain and lumbosacral radiculopathy
Background Needle EMG may be negative in mild or predominantly sensory lumbosacral radiculopathies. In such cases, an increase in the latency of the soleus H-reflex is a useful diagnostic criterion for establishing sensory fiber compromise at the S1 root
