Synaptic coupling of single cutaneous afferents of the median nerve with ankle muscles, and their discharge characteristics to rapid light touch displacements
DownloadFall 2020
Lightly touching a stable reference can greatly improve balance. Unexpected displacement of a light touch reference at the finger can lead to rapid activation of ankle muscles in standing participants and transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the median nerve generates short latency reflexes...
