  1. Standing at the top of a staircase decreases H-reflex amplitude in humans (-30.6%, p < 0.001).

    “In both groups, the H 50 amplitude (-30.6%; p < 0.001) and slope of H-reflex input-output relation (-10.2%; p = 0.002) were lesser when standing upstairs than downstairs”

Older age

mixedin humans1

1 study

  1. Older age is associated with H-reflex amplitude in humans (Lower H MAX (p = 0.029); higher H M5% and M Hmax (both p<0.001)).

    “old adults had lesser H MAX (p = 0.029) but greater H M5% (p<0.001) and M Hmax (p<0.001).”
