Single motor unit firing rate after stroke is higher on the less-affected side during stable low-level voluntary contractions
Muscle weakness is the most common outcome after stroke and a leading cause of adult-acquired motor disability. Single motor unit properties provide insight into the mechanisms of post-stroke motor impairment. Motor units on the more-affected side are reported to have lower peak firing rates, reduce...
