DOI: 10.1109/tbme.2017.2733581
Abstract: Although the stretch reflex plays an important role in spasticity, so far the stretch reflex has not been sufficiently investigated. Previous stretch reflex activation models have some limitations, whereby they are not able to predict… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.764650
Abstract: Objective To characterize how, following a stretch-induced attenuation, volitional muscle activation impacts stretch reflex activity in individuals with stroke. Methods A robotic device rotated the paretic elbow of individuals with hemiparetic stroke from 70° to… read more here.
