Relative decreases in knee extension torque with increased knee extension velocities in stroke patients with hemiparesis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Motor imagery (MI) ability should be evaluated in selected individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) who can benefit from MI training in their rehabilitation program. Electrodermal activity seems to be a reliable indicator for assessing MI ability. However, individuals with SCI have a variety of autonomic dy...
