Phase-dependent modulation of percutaneously elicited multisegmental muscle responses after spinal cord injury.
Phase-dependent modulation of monosynaptic reflexes has been reported for several muscles of the lower limb of uninjured rats and humans. To assess whether this step-phase-dependent modulation can be mediated at the level of the human spinal cord, we compared the modulation of responses evoked simultaneously in multiple motor pools in clinically complete spinal cord injury (SCI) compared with n...
متن کاملLocomotor training alters the behavior of flexor reflexes during walking in human spinal cord injury.
In humans, a chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) impairs the excitability of pathways mediating early flexor reflexes and increases the excitability of late, long-lasting flexor reflexes. We hypothesized that in individuals with SCI, locomotor training will alter the behavior of these spinally mediated reflexes. Nine individuals who had either chronic clinically motor complete or incomplete SCI re...
متن کاملPeriodic modulation of repetitively elicited monosynaptic reflexes of the human lumbosacral spinal cord.
In individuals with motor-complete spinal cord injury, epidural stimulation of the lumbosacral spinal cord at 2 Hz evokes unmodulated reflexes in the lower limbs, while stimulation at 22-60 Hz can generate rhythmic burstlike activity. Here we elaborated on an output pattern emerging at transitional stimulation frequencies with consecutively elicited reflexes alternating between large and small....
متن کاملPlantar cutaneous afferents normalize the reflex modulation patterns during stepping in chronic human spinal cord injury.
Plantar cutaneous afferent transmission is critical for recovery of locomotion in spinalized animals, whereas a phase-dependent reflex modulation is apparent during fictive or real locomotion. In nine people with a chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) the effects of foot sole stimulation on the soleus H-reflex and tibialis anterior (TA) flexion reflex modulation patterns during assisted stepping we...
متن کاملExtent and role of multisegmental coupling in the Lamprey spinal locomotor pattern generator.
Timing of oscillatory activity along the longitudinal body axis is critical for locomotion in the lamprey and other elongated animals. In the lamprey spinal locomotor central pattern generator (CPG), intersegmental coordination is thought to arise from the pattern of extensive connections made by propriospinal interneurons. However, the mechanisms responsible for intersegmental coordination rem...
