Figure 3From: Definition dependent properties of the cortical silent period in upper-extremity muscles, a methodological studyAverage stimulus–response curves (Boltzmann function) of the silent period (SP) obtained from rectified (straight line) and non-rectified (dashed line) EMG of the Biceps Brachii (BB) muscles (A, top) and the Abductor Digiti Minimi (ADM) muscles (B, bottom) in 15 healthy participants. SP1: the earliest reoccurrence of any EMG-activity, including burst activity; SP2: the return of continuous EMG-activity, and SP3 the return of continuous EMG-activity to pre-stimulus levels.Back to article page
