Voluntary contraction enhances spinal reciprocal inhibition induced by patterned electrical stimulation in patients with stroke.

CONCLUSION: VC enhanced the PES-induced plastic changes in RI in patients with stroke. This effect can potentially increase the success rate of newer neurorehabilitative approaches in achieving functional recovery after stroke. PMID: 29439361 [PubMed - in process]
