Monosynaptic facilitation of motoneurons innervating intrinsic hand muscles mediated by group Ia afferents from the extensor carpi radialis in humans

Abstract The projection pattern of low‐threshold afferents from the extensor carpi radialis (ECR) to motoneurons supplying intrinsic hand muscles was investigated using the post‐stimulus time‐histogram (PSTH) and electromyogram‐averaging (EMG‐A) methods. Electrical conditioning stimulation was appli...
