Motor Unit Synchronization and Neuromuscular Performance
Abstract
SEMMLER, J.G. Motor unit synchronization and neuromuscular performance. Exerc. Sport Sci. Rev., Vol. 30, No. 1, pp 8–14, 2002. The acute and chronic plasticity of motor unit synchronization suggests that it must represent a deliberate strategy for neuromuscular activation. The most likely functional role of motor unit synchronization is to increase the rate of force development during rapid contractions or as a mechanism to coordinate the activity of multiple muscles in synergy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
