Bilateral Medial Tibiofemoral Joint Stiffness in Full Extension and 20 degrees of Knee Flexion.
CONTEXT: The valgus stress test is used clinically to assess injury to the medial knee structures in 2 positions: full extension and some degree of flexion. The amount of flexion used to \”isolate\” the medial collateral ligament is not […]

Fatigue and the electromechanical efficiency of the vastus medialis and vastus lateralis muscles.
CONTEXT: The relationship between the amplitudes of the mechanomyographic (MMG) and electromyographic (EMG) signals has been used to examine the \”electromechanical efficiency\” (EME) of normal and diseased muscle. The EME may help us to better understand the neuromuscular relationship between […]
