Regulatory actions of human stretch reflex

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 1976
1. The stretch reflex in the elbow flexor musculature was studied in 23 human subjects. The subjects were required to establish an initial force equivalent to 10% maximum at a prescribed initial length; mechanical disturbances delivered at random times increased load force to 15% or reduced it to 5%.

Stretch reflex blepharospasm

Neurology, 1985
We studied a patient with blepharospasm provoked by stretching the orbicularis oculi muscles. With the eyes closed, EMG of the orbicularis oculi at rest revealed spontaneous rhythmic muscle activity that was not visible. When she tried to open her eyes, repetitive jerking blepharoclonus and tonic blepharospasm rendered her functionally blind.

Studies of the human stretch reflex

Muscle & Nerve, 2000
We recorded the late electromyographic (EMG) responses to predictable and unpredictable stretches of the wrist flexor and extensor muscles during ballistic movement or isometric contractions. We simultaneously recorded the accompanying cerebral responses.

Jaw stretch reflexes in children

Experimental Brain Research, 2005
The substantial morphological transformations that occur during human development present the nervous system with a considerable challenge in terms of motor control. Variability of skilled motor performance is a hallmark of a developing system. In adults, the jaw stretch reflex contributes to the functional stability of the jaw.
