Stretch reflex excitability in contralateral limbs of stroke survivors is higher than in matched controls

BACKGROUND: Spasticity, characterized by hyperreflexia, is a motor impairment that can arise following a hemispheric stroke. While the neural mechanisms underlying spasticity in chronic stroke survivors are unknown, one probable cause of hyperreflexia is increased motoneuron (MN) excitability. Poten...
