Abstract (sommario):
When active skeletal muscle is stretched, it generally responds with a contraction which resists the stretch. This response is termed the muscle stretch reflex. The size (gain) and timing (phase) of the response has been found to depend on many factors including the characteristics of the applied stretch, the muscle contraction level and the subject's intention. Investigations of this stretch reflex have often involved stretches to muscle which contained frequencies either beyond the range of voluntary movement or else which could be consciously tracked. This study sought to characterise the f

Abstract (sommario):
Stretch reflex excitability was measured during quiet standing by using a bilateral electro-hydraulic actuator to apply perturbations of angular position to the ankle. Subjects were instructed to stand quietly while pulse displacements were applied at random times. Position, torque, gastrocnemius-soleus EMG, tibialis anterior EMG, heel position, tibia angle, femur angle, and sacrum angle were measured. Background torque and reflex excitability varied substantially from trial to trial---reflex torque decreased as the background torque level increased; while reflex EMG increased when back

Abstract (sommario):
Human soleus H-reflex gain was measured in supine lying and in standing vertically while stabilised by a backboard. H-reflex amplitude was less in stabilised standing than in supine lying. The reduction was partly due to the effect of gravitational load. When the same load was applied (by compression of the body between shoulders and feet) while lying supine the corresponding reduction was 70%. The results are discussed in relation to possible gravitational load receptors. In a second series of experiments a collapsible landing platform was used to differentiate between reflex and programmed c

Abstract (sommario):
The stretch reflex is an involuntary contraction produced in response to muscle stretch. Despite extensive research, its role in the control of movement and posture remains controversial. One reason for this is that the torque output produced by reflex activity has been studied in only a limited number of tasks and behaviours. The main thrust of this thesis is to examine whether the central nervous system (CNS) modifies stretch reflex properties to suit the task.<br>An electro-hydraulic actuator applied perturbations to the ankles of five subjects while they performed position-matching (PM) an

Abstract (sommario):
Spasticity is a clinical condition that may develop in people with central nervous system injuries. It is believed that spasticity results from changes in the excitability of the stretch reflex pathways manifesting clinically as a velocity dependent increase in resistance to passive movement (RTPM) and exaggerated tendon jerks. Stretch reflex excitability is influenced by neural (e.g. feed-forward and feedback mechanisms) and biomechanical components (e.g. muscle length).

The role of the monosynaptic stretch reflex in the realm of human motor activity has been controversial for many years. A non-linear parallel-cascade system identification technique was recently developed to non-invasively elucidate the ankle reflex dynamics.

The stretch reflex response helps control upright stance by countering the effects of gravity.

The sway in the ML plane was characterized by changes in the center of pressure (COP) and in the vertical forces between the feet. Two experiments were carried out.

There are clear changes to human static and dynamic postural control in situations of elevated postural threat (e.g. standing at the edge of an elevated platform).

Abstract (sommario):
The stretch reflex circuit is one of the most primitive circuits of mammalian system and serves mainly to control the length of the muscle. It consists of four elements: the stretch sensor (muscle spindle/ intrafusal fiber lie parallel between extrafusal, contractile musculature), extrafusal muscle fiber, sensory neuron and motoneuron. The basic principle of the stretch reflex arc circuit is as follows: whenever there is a sudden stretch in a muscle, it needs to compensate back to its original length so as to prevent any kind of injury. It performs this compensation process using a simple nega

The most basic property of a muscle is its ability to contract and produce force when stimulated. A muscle is mainly composed of cells consisting of myofibrils with its basic unit called as a sarcomere. A sarcomere is composed of actin and myosin responsible for the muscle contraction. The Hill-type muscle model is the most commonly used model to simulate the behavior of a muscle. A muscle can produce its maximum force at isometric conditions. The level of force produced in the muscle is determined by the the frequency of the signals from the CNS. The force production is also a function of for

碩士<br>臺北巿立體育學院<br>運動科學研究所<br>91<br>The purposes of this study were to examine the relationship of reaction time in heel rising with related posture, stretch reflex, muscle fitness or range of motion. Recruited were forty university students who did habitual exercise(19~23 years old, more than 3 days/week, more than 30 mins/day). No disturbance existed before experiment, and sequences of measurement were randomized. Product-moment correlation of Carl Pearson were to used determine correlations between variables. The t-test and one-way ANOVA with a repeated design were used to test th

Abstract (sommario):
The Muscle Shortening Maneuver (MSM), a physiotherapy approach, was introduced by Grimaldi et al. in the eighties and is derived from Feldman’s λ model of motor control (Melchiorre, 2014). In the λ model the regulation of the stretch reflex threshold, that is the lower muscle length or joint angle at which motoneuronal recruitment occurs, plays a pivotal role (Feldman, 1995; Latash, 2010). The dynamic stretch reflex threshold (DSRT) is influenced by stretch speed. The tonic stretch reflex threshold (TSRT) represents the specific value of the DSRT at zero velocity. DSRTs and TSRTs are expressed

碩士<br>國立成功大學<br>醫學工程研究所<br>83<br>Spasticity in stroke, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury often interferes the patientk's limb functions, and often combined with other motor deficits such as rigidity, ataxia, and flexor and extensor synergies. The existing clinical measures, by determining the resistance to external imposed passive movement of a joint, are usually subjective and qualitative. An objective and quantitative evaluation of the spastic hypertonia is highly needed for improving the treatment and rehabilitation process of cerebral stroke patients. The aim of this research
