Reduced stretch-reflex sensitivity after exhausting stretch-shortening cycle exercise

European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1996
The stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) is an effective and natural form of muscle function but, when repeated with sufficient intensity or duration, it may lead to muscle damage and functional defects. A reduced tolerance to impact has been reported, which may be partly attributed to a reduced stretch-reflex potentiation.

Does spasticity result from hyperactive stretch reflexes? Preliminary findings from a stretch reflex characterization study

Disability and Rehabilitation, 2004
To characterize the stretch reflex response of the biceps brachii in stroke patients with elbow spasticity (prior to or within 15 min of treatment with botulinum toxin) and non-impaired volunteers with the aim of quantifying the stretch reflex excitability and observe the differences between the groups.A cross-sectional study. Stretch reflexes from the

Are proprioceptive‐induced reflex seizures epileptically‐enhanced stretch reflex manifestations?

Epileptic Disorders, 2012
ABSTRACTIn reflex seizures induced by proprioceptive stimuli, the activated network may be identified as a single anatomo‐functional circuit; the sensory‐motor network. These seizures may be considered as epileptically‐enhanced stretch reflexes. Proprioceptive reflex epilepsies are a good example of the so‐called “system epilepsies”.

The Stretch-Reflex System

1998
Let us examine the lowest motor control level for which the neural structure is delimited by the major identified neurons of the spinal cord (i.e., α- and γ-motoneurons, Ia interneurons, and Renshaw cells) and by extrafusal and intrafusal muscle fibers.

An Assessment of Stretch Reflex Function

1976
Publisher Summary Most investigators believe that the stretch reflex is an important mechanism in the regulation of posture and movement, but the precise nature of its actions and the importance of this reflex in intact animals and humans have remained unclear.

Dynamic properties of stretch reflex

Neurophysiology, 1990
Dynamic aspects of stretch and unloading reflexes were investigated in the hindlimb extensor muscles of decerebrate cats. A complex transformation of non-linear effects inherent in the dynamics of the deafferented muscle was seen to occur under reflex control without hysteris (underlying non-linear static qualities of the muscle) being suppressed ...
