Abstract: With aging and obesity lower limb torque deteriorates. Importantly, the ratio between knee flexor (KF) and extensor (KE) torque is an indicator of joint stability. We compared KF torque and KF/KE ratio in older subjects… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fncel.2019.00452
Abstract: Central pattern generators (CPGs) in the thoracolumbar spinal cord generate the basic hindlimb locomotor pattern. The locomotor CPG integrates descending commands and sensory information from the periphery to activate, modulate and halt the rhythmic program.… read more here.
