Corticospinal excitability in patients with chronic low back painPaul H Strutton
Department of Musculoskeletal Surgery, Division of Surgery, Anaesthetics, and Intensive Care, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, Charing Cross Campus, London, UK
J Spinal Disord Tech 18:420-4. 2005..This study was designed to investigate corticospinal excitability of lumbar muscles using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in patients with chronic low back pain and correlate this with self-rated measures of disability and pain...
Stability of corticospinal excitability and grip force in intrinsic hand muscles in man over a 24-h periodPaul H Strutton
Division of Neuroscience and Psychological Medicine, Department of Sensorimotor Systems, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, Charing Cross Campus, London W6 8RP, UK
Physiol Behav 79:679-82. 2003....
Corticospinal excitability in patients with unilateral sciaticaPaul H Strutton
Department of Sensorimotor Systems, Division of Neuroscience and Psychological Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, Charing Cross Campus, London W6 8RP, UK
Neurosci Lett 353:33-6. 2003..These changes might help to relax muscles close to the perceived site of pain and so alleviate symptoms. Investigation of these patients following remedial treatment will allow us to establish if the changes are transient in nature...
Corticospinal activation of internal oblique muscles has a strong ipsilateral component and can be lateralised in manPaul H Strutton
Department of Musculoskeletal Surgery, Division of Surgery, Anaesthetics and Intensive Care, Imperial College Faculty of Medicine, Charing Cross Hospital, W6 8RF, London, UK
Exp Brain Res 158:474-9. 2004..21+/-0.38 compared with 0.26+/-0.06 in the other cortex ( P<0.05). It appears that the corticospinal control of IO has a strong ipsilateral component relative to the limb muscles and also shows hemispheric asymmetry...
Cortical control of erector spinae muscles during arm abduction in humansAnnapoorna Kuppuswamy
Division of Neuroscience and Mental Health, Imperial College London, Charing Cross Campus, London W6 8RP, UK
Gait Posture 27:478-84. 2008..The study has implications for the design of measures to promote recovery and rehabilitation of motor function in disorders such as stroke and spinal cord injury...
Fatigue-induced change in corticospinal drive to back muscles in elite rowersRick C Fulton
Division of Neuroscience and Psychological Medicine, Imperial College School of Medicine, Charing Cross Hospital, London W6 8RF, UK
Exp Physiol 87:593-600. 2002..This notion is supported by the lack of any difference between groups following intense exercise when both groups were working at their own maximum...
Measurement of voluntary activation of the back muscles using transcranial magnetic stimulationJames Lagan
The Nick Davey laboratory, Department of Biosurgery and Surgical Technology, Division of Surgery, Oncology, Reproductive Biology and Anaesthetics SORA, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London W6 8RF, UK
Clin Neurophysiol 119:2839-45. 2008..It has yet to be used to assess voluntary activation in trunk muscles. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of using TMS to measure voluntary activation in back muscles...
Trunk muscle responses following unpredictable loading of an abducted armChristopher J Mullington
Department of Biosurgery and Surgical Technology, Division of Surgery, Oncology, Reproductive Biology and Anaesthetics SORA, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, Charing Cross Hospital, London W6 8RF, UK
Gait Posture 30:181-6. 2009..These results may have implications in terms of mechanisms contributing to low back pain and further work is warranted to examine these responses in left-handed individuals...
Relationship between back muscle endurance and voluntary activationEmily Bottle
Division of Surgery, Department of Surgery and Cancer, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, Charing Cross Hospital, London, UK
J Electromyogr Kinesiol 22:383-90. 2012..These findings indicate that the endurance of the back muscles, as assessed using this widely utilised test does not appear to be related to a subject's ability to drive their back muscles voluntarily either maximally or submaximally...
Electromyographic activity of the quadriceps components during the final degrees of knee extensionLynsey D Duffell
Human Performance Group, Division of Surgery, Department of Surgery and Cancer, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London, UK
J Back Musculoskelet Rehabil 24:215-23. 2011..Future work should compare these results with people with anterior knee pain, and explore this further during activities of daily living...
Human corticospinal excitability in microgravity and hypergravity during parabolic flightNick J Davey
Department of Sensorimotor Systems, Division of Neuroscience and Psychological Medicine, Imperial College London, Charing Cross Hospital, London, UK
Aviat Space Environ Med 75:359-63. 2004..We investigated how decreased and increased gravitational force affects EMG in human back and arm muscles and to what extent the motor cortex is responsible for any modulation seen...
Evaluation of corticospinal excitability in cervical myelopathy, before and after surgery, with transcranial magnetic stimulation: a pilot studyAlessia Nicotra
Department of Clinical Neurophysiology, West London Neurosciences Centre, Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, Charing Cross Hospital, London, W6 8RF, UK
Eur Spine J 22:189-96. 2013....
Estimation of cortical silent period following transcranial magnetic stimulation using a computerised cumulative sum methodNicolas K K King
Department of Movement and Balance, Division of Neuroscience, Imperial College, Charing Cross Campus, London W6 8RP, UK
J Neurosci Methods 150:96-104. 2006..Our results show the Cusum method to be a simple, graphical and powerful method of detecting low-intensity CSP that can be easily automated using standard software...
