Abstract: In people with spasticity due to chronic incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI), it has been presumed that the abnormal stretch reflex activity impairs gait. However, locomotor stretch reflexes across all phases of walking have not… read more here.

Abstract: Plastic adaptations are known to take place in muscles, tendons, joints and the nervous system in response to changes in muscle activity. However, few studies have addressed how these plastic adaptations are related. Thus, this… read more here.
