Abstract: During voluntary contractions, limb muscle motor unit (MU) firing rates accelerate over a small force range and saturate in response to increasing contraction intensity. In comparison, facial muscles are cranially innervated, and some function without… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnhum.2022.1039242
Abstract: A number of H-reflex studies used a moderate steady voluntary contraction in an attempt to keep the motoneuron pool excitability relatively constant. However, it is not clear whether the voluntary muscle activation itself represents a… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.80089
Abstract: Sensory input converging on the spinal cord contributes to the control of movement. Although sensory pathways reorganize following spinal cord injury (SCI), the extent to which sensory input from Ia afferents is regulated during voluntary… read more here.
