Effect of knee joint position on triceps surae motor unit recruitment and firing rates

K Hali, EA Kirk, CL Rice - Experimental Brain Research, 2019 - Springer
Gastrocnemii muscle fibers shorten when the knee joint is in a flexed compared to an extended
position. This leads to inhibition of medial gastrocnemius (MG) motor units, however, it is …

Effect of ankle joint position on triceps surae contractile properties and motor unit discharge rates

K Hali, AM Zero, CL Rice - Physiological Reports, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
The triceps surae (TS) length–tension relationship can be altered by changing the knee joint
position, ankle joint position or both. However, studies exploring the effect of muscle length …

Use of virtual reality for the management of phantom limb pain: A systematic review

K Hali, MA Manzo, R Koucheki, JS Wunder… - Disability and …, 2024 - Taylor & Francis
Purpose To summarize the research on the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) therapy for
the management of phantom limb pain (PLP). Methods Three databases (SCOPUS, Ovid …

Complications and early recovery following hip hemiarthroplasty through the direct anterior approach: a systematic review and meta-analysis

MA Manzo, K Hali, R Koucheki, JI Wolfstadt… - European Journal of …, 2023 - Springer
Purpose Minimizing complications is an important focus in hip hemiarthroplasty (HHA) for
femoral neck fracture (FNF) patients given the associated high morbidity and mortality rates. …

Differential modulation of motor unit properties from the separate components of the triceps surae in humans

K Hali, BH Dalton, B Harwood, AF Fessler, GA Power… - Neuroscience, 2020 - Elsevier
The triceps surae is comprised of the soleus, and medial (MG) and lateral (LG) gastrocnemii.
Modulation of triceps surae motor units (MUs) is context- and muscle-dependent, yet it is …

[HTML][HTML] The induced membrane technique in animal models: a systematic review

H Sun, C Godbout, K Hali, J Momic… - OTA …, 2022 - journals.lww.com
Objectives: The induced membrane technique (IMT) is a 2-stage surgical approach that has
become increasingly popular to manage bone defects. Preclinical investigations have been …

[HTML][HTML] Endothelial Progenitor Cell Therapy for Fracture Healing: A Dose-Response Study in a Rat Femoral Defect Model

DJ Ramnaraign, C Godbout, K Hali… - Journal of Tissue …, 2023 - hindawi.com
Endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) therapy has been successfully used in orthopaedic preclinical
models to heal bone defects. However, no previous studies have investigated the dose-…

Firing rate trajectories of human motor units during isometric ramp contractions to 10, 25 and 50% of maximal voluntary contraction

AM Zero, EA Kirk, K Hali, CL Rice - Neuroscience Letters, 2021 - Elsevier
During low torque graded isometric contractions, motor units (MU) exhibit initial firing rate
acceleration followed by saturation demonstrating a non-linear response attributed to …

The effect of blood flow on tibialis anterior motor unit firing rates during sustained low-intensity isometric contractions

DB Copithorne, K Hali, CL Rice - Applied Physiology, Nutrition …, 2021 - cdnsciencepub.com
Low-intensity contractions with blood flow occlusion (BFO) result in neuromuscular adaptations
comparable with high-intensity (>70% maximal voluntary contraction, MVC) exercise. …

Effect of ankle joint position on triceps surae motor unit firing rates

K Hali, AM Zero, J Fanous, CL Rice - The FASEB Journal, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
The triceps surae is an interesting model to study the effect of muscle length changes on motor
unit properties for two reasons. First, the gastrocnemii components show lower motor unit …
