Gastrocnemius muscle-tendon interaction during walking in typically-developing adults and children, and in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
BACKGROUND Our understanding of the interaction of muscle bellies and their tendons in individuals with muscle pathology is limited. Knowledge of these interactions may inform us of the effects of musculoskeletal pathologies on muscle-tendon dynamics and the subsequent neurological control strategies used in gait. Here, we investigate gastrocnemius muscle-tendon interaction in typically-develop...
متن کاملSpeed-Dependent Modulation of Muscle Activity Based on Muscle Synergies during Treadmill Walking
The regulation of walking speed is easily achieved. However, the central nervous system (CNS) must coordinate numerous muscles in order to achieve a smooth and continuous control of walking speed. To control walking speed appropriately, the CNS may need to utilize a simplified system for the control of numerous muscles. Previous studies have revealed that the CNS may control walking via muscle ...

متن کاملEnergy expenditure and physical activity of ambulatory children with cerebral palsy and of typically developing children.
BACKGROUND Children with cerebral palsy (CP) expend more energy when walking than do their typically developing peers. The effect this has on physical activity levels (PALs) and on total energy expenditure (TEE) will have important implications when determining energy requirements. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the components of TEE in children with CP in comparison with typicall...
متن کاملMeasuring kinaesthetic sensitivity in typically developing children.
This study presents a method to quantify a child's sensitivity to passive limb motion, which is an important aspect of kinaesthesia not easily examined clinically. Psychophysical detection thresholds to passive forearm motion were determined in a group of 20 typically developing pre-adolescent children (mean age 12y 6mo, SD 10mo, range 11-13y) and a group of 10 healthy adults (mean age 29y 10mo...
