Central pattern generators (CPGs) located in the spinal cord produce the coordinated
activation of flexor and extensor motoneurons during locomotion. Previously proposed …

OBJECTIVE Muscles are essential components of our sensorimotor system that help
maintain balance and perform a smooth gait, but it is unclear whether arthritic damage …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis to affect synovial joints. 4, 5, 88
Although more benign than other rheumatic disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the …

It has long been believed that resistance training is accompanied by changes within the
nervous system that play an important role in the development of strength. Many elements of …

A hypothesis about sensorimotor integration (the λ model) is described and applied to
movement control and kinesthesia. The central idea is that the nervous system organizes …

This review revolves primarily around segmental feedback systems established by muscle
spindle and Golgi tendon organ afferents, as well as spinal recurrent inhibition via Renshaw …

Although it has long been supposed that resistance training causes adaptive changes in the
CNS, the sites and nature of these adaptations have not previously been identified. In order …

During locomotion many segmental hindlimb reflex pathways serve not only to regulate the
excitability of local groups of motoneurones, but also to control the basic operation of the …

The paper summarizes a series of studies investigating reduced quadriceps femoris
activation and its effect on rehabilitation of patients with traumatic and arthritic knee damage …
