Lower motor unit discharge rates in gastrocnemius lateralis, but not in gastrocnemius medialis or soleus, in runners with Achilles tendinopathy: a pilot study

Gabriel L. Fernandes et al.

Summary: This study investigated the motor unit discharge properties and torque steadiness of runners with Achilles tendinopathy (AT) at submaximal intensities. The results showed that runners with AT had a lower neural drive and failed to increase motor unit discharge rate to adjust for the increase in torque demand.

Grip strength is more sensitive to changes in elbow position than isolated wrist extension strength in patients with lateral elbow tendinopathy

Greg Pitts et al.

Summary: This observational study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity of wrist extension strength testing on patients with lateral elbow tendinopathy. The study found that grip strength testing may be a more relevant clinical test at the initial evaluation for these patients.

Synergic control of a single muscle: The example of flexor digitorum superficialis

Shirin Madarshahian et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated for the first time the applicability of the concept of synergic control to individual muscles, with segmental spinal mechanisms likely playing a major role in the control of action.

Pain-induced changes in motor unit discharge depend on recruitment threshold and contraction speed

Eduardo Martinez-Valdes et al.

Summary: The study found that pain reduces recruitment and discharge rate of high-threshold motor units, while low-threshold motor units are less affected. At slow contraction speeds, pain decreases torque variability and discharge rate variability, but not at fast speeds. Pain has differential effects on motor unit recruitment and discharge behavior.

Synergies at the level of motor units in single-finger and multi-finger tasks

Shirin Madarshahian et al.

Summary: The study examines the organization of motor units in the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle, identifying stable groups and force-stabilizing synergies. Results show the presence of multi-motor unit synergies stabilizing task force, but lack of such synergies in single-finger force tasks.
