Single motor-unit control by normal and cerebral-palsied males / Debra W. ROBERTSON in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-3 (June 1984)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 26-3 (June 1984) . - p.323-327 Titre : Single motor-unit control by normal and cerebral-palsied males Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Debra W. ROBERTSON, Auteur ; Wynne A. LEE, Auteur ; Michael JACOBS, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.323-327 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Single motor-unit (SMU) control was compared for three ambulatory cerebral-palsied and three neurologically unimpaired subjects. Both groups were similar in their abilities to produce a discrete whole muscle contraction, to isolate and maintain firing of a single motor unit, and to turn a unit on at a visual signal. Unit inter-spike intervals were very similar for both groups. However, the cerebral-palsied subjects showed a consistent inability to inhibit single motor-unit (or whole muscle) activity if the isolated unit had been firing for some time; normal subjects did not show a similar inability.
