Dynamic changes in cortical and spinal activities with different representations of isometric motor actions and efforts

Dynamic changes in cortical and spinal activities with different representations of isometric motor actions and efforts

Background: Positioning the shoulder joint from 30 degrees adduction (anterior [ANT]) to 30 degrees abduction (posterior [POST]) in the horizontal plane modifies the corticospinal output to hand and forearm muscles in humans. Objective: We investigated the mechanisms by which the central nervous sys...
