Pathway-specific modulatory effects of neuromuscular electrical stimulation during pedaling in chronic stroke survivors

Abstract Background Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is extensively used in stroke motor rehabilitation. How it promotes motor recovery remains only partially understood. NMES could change muscular properties, produce altered sensory inputs, and modulate fluctuations of cortical activitie...
