  2. 6. Neuromuscular adaptations to muscle fatigue during submaximal isometric contractions in man

    Author : Wolfgang N Löscher; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : isometric; electromyography; tremor; H-reflex; twitch; motoneuron; recruitment; la-afferents; recurrent inhibition; central fatigue; excitatory drive; gastrocnemius; soleus; triceps surae; tendon vibration; ischemia; Renshaw cellStockholm 1995;

    Abstract : During a sustained contraction, the force producing capacity of a muscle gradually decreases. In order to maintain a constant force output, the neuromuscular system has to adapt to the contractile fatigue process. READ MORE

    Author : Olga Dyakova; Karin Nordström; Dan Larhammar; Eric Warrant; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; natural scenes; image statistics; hoverflies; optomotor response; cSIFE neuron; sleep deprivation;

    Abstract : Any image can be described in terms of its statistics (i.e. quantitative parameters calculated from the image, for example RMS-contrast, the skewness of image brightness distribution, and slope constant of an average amplitude spectrum). READ MORE

    Author : Niklas K. Edvall; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background Tinnitus is the phantom perception of sound reported by around 14% of the population. For over 120 million people worldwide tinnitus is perceived as a major problem.
