Selected contractile properties and fatigability of the quadriceps muscle were studied in seven spinal cord-injured (SCI) and 13 able-bodied control (control) individuals. The SCI muscles demonstrated faster rates of contraction and relaxation than did control muscles and extremely large force oscil
Changes with age in the voluntary static and dynamic strength of the quadriceps muscle group have been well characterized, and the importance of the muscle group for locomotion and independent living have been highlighted in both normal human aging and in clinical studies. Surprisingly few studies o
To investigate the mechanical efficiency of surviving motor units of anterior tibial muscle in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), we studied motor unit action potentials, muscle force, and muscle fatigability in patients with ALS and controls using 25 min of low to moderate intensity
Transcranial magnetic stimulation was used to study motor evoked potentials (MEPs) of leg muscles in controls and patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) before and after walking. In controls, MEP areas were significantly reduced after walking. A similar or greater reduction was seen in most patients,
## Abstract The effects of muscle creatine manipulation on contractile properties in oxidative and glycolytic muscles were evaluated. Whereas control mice (NMRi; __n__ = 12) received normal chow (5 g daily), three experimental groups were created by adding creatine monohydrate (CR group; 5%, 1 week
