The spinal circuitries combine the information flow from the supraspinal centers with the
afferent input to generate the neural codes that drive the human skeletal muscles. The …

Background/aim: Surface electromyography (surface EMG) is a primary technique to detect
the electrical activities of muscles through surface electrodes. In recent years, surface EMG …

Diabetes Mellitus (DM), a chronic lifelong condition, is characterized by increased blood
sugar levels. As there is no cure for DM, the major focus lies on controlling the disease …

Age-related changes in motor unit activation properties remain unclear for locomotor
muscles such as quadriceps muscles, although these muscles are preferentially atrophied …

Background Electromyography (EMG) alterations during gait, supposedly caused by
diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy, are subtle and still inconsistent, due to difficulties in …

Background Since age-related muscle strength loss cannot be explained solely by muscle
atrophy, other determinants would also contribute to muscle strength in elderly. The present …

Introduction: We investigated the motor unit (MU) firing pattern in type 2 diabetes mellitus
(T2DM) patients by means of multichannel surface electromyography (SEMG). Methods …

Age-related sarcopenia is a progressive and generalized skeletal muscle disorder
associated with adverse outcomes. Herein, we evaluate the effects of a combination of …

This paper addresses a new approach to objectively evaluate muscle fatigue in isometric
and dynamic physical exertions using surface electromyography (S-EMG). The emphasis of …

This study compares muscle fiber conduction velocities estimated using surface
electromyography during isometric maximal voluntary contraction in different stages of …
