The purposes of this study were to investigate the effects of circumferential pressure on flexor
carpi radialis (FCR) H-reflex in subjects without neuromuscular deficits and to evaluate the …

Aims: The purposes of this randomised clinical trial were to determine the effect that exercise,
cryotherapy, and exercise with cryotherapy have on treating lateral epicondylitis. The …

We investigated the effect of air-splint pressure on soleus muscle motoneuron reflex excitability
in 18 nondisabled subjects with no history of neurological disease and 8 subjects with …

… Golgi tendon organs have also been implicated as a possible mechanism for the reflex
inhibition observed in this study (Agostinucci, et al., 2006). This hypothesis is based on studies …

Background Epidemiologic studies have consistently demonstrated a strong positive association
between repetition and “occupational overuse syndromes” (OOS). The repetitive nature …

20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) is the ω-hydroxylation product of arachidonic
acid catalyzed by CYP4A and 4F enzymes. 20-HETE is a vasoactive eicosanoid of the …

Objective: This study investigated circumferential pressure effect on soleus motoneuron
reflex excitability in subjects with spinal cord injury (SCI). Setting: A university neuromuscular …

The effect that topical anesthetics has on cutaneous sensation and on soleus motoneuron
reflex excitability was studied in a healthy population. Data were obtained from 16 volunteers (…

Circumferential pressure (CP) was shown to decrease muscle activity in subjects without
neuromuscular disorders and in individuals with spinal cord injury and cerebrovascular …

Background Circumferential pressure (CP) applied to the lower leg reduces soleus motor
neuron reflex excitability (MNRE); however, the mechanism of control is unknown. Aim To …
