Augmented and prematurely occurring H-reflex recovery curve shows enhanced spinal network excitability in ALS patients when employing the double stimulation paradigm [PDF]
Frontiers in NeurologyAmyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder in which motoneuron loss in the brain and spinal cord induces complex neuroplastic changes.

Optic Flow Simulating Self-Motion Does Not Modulate the Hoffmann Reflex in the Soleus During Upright Standing in Healthy Young Adults [PDF]
Brain SciencesBackground/Objectives: Visual motion is a powerful contributor to postural control, yet its influence on modulation of the Ia afferent pathway remains to be confirmed. This study investigated whether optic-flow simulating self-motion modulates the soleus

Noise-Limited Failure of OGY Chaos Control in Regulating Monosynaptic Reflex Variability in the In Vivo Cat Spinal Cord [PDF]
NeuroSciMonosynaptic reflexes (MSRs) elicited by constant-intensity group I afferent stimulation exhibit marked amplitude variability, commonly attributed to stochastic presynaptic modulation and dynamic postsynaptic excitability.

TRANSMISSION IN FRACTIONATED MONOSYNAPTIC SPINAL REFLEX SYSTEMS [PDF]
Journal of General Physiology, 1955 A study has been made of conditions that support monosynaptic reflex transmission from afferent fibers of one part of a synergic muscle mass to motoneurons of another part. Heteronymous response so called can be brought on by prior tetanization of the afferent pathway and by asphyxiation to a critical stage.

Neurophysiological parameters in patients with hallux valgus
Вестник медицинского института «Реавиз»: Реабилитация, врач и здоровье, 2022 We examined 38 patients (35 women and 3 men aged 30–40 years) with stage 2 and 3 hallux valgus in the department of traumatology and orthopedics of the Irkutsk Scientific Centre of Surgery and Traumatology to study the electroneuromyographic parameters ...

Neural effects of muscle stretching on the spinal reflexes in multiple lower-limb muscles. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 While previous studies have shown that muscle stretching suppresses monosynaptic spinal reflex excitability in stretched muscles, its effects on non-stretched muscles is still largely unknown.

eLife, 2022 Sensory input converging on the spinal cord contributes to the control of movement. Although sensory pathways reorganize following spinal cord injury (SCI), the extent to which sensory input from Ia afferents is regulated during voluntary contraction ...

Immobilization leads to reduced stretch reflexes but increased central reflex gain in the rat [PDF]
, 2020 Plastic adaptations are known to take place in muscles, tendons, joints and the nervous system in response to changes in muscle activity. However, few studies have addressed how these plastic adaptations are related.

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2021 The C3–C4 propriospinal system is an important pathway mediating movement in cats; it contributes to movements in primates (including humans), and may have a role in recovery after lesion.
