  • Title: Neurophysiological mechanisms in abnormal reflex activities in cerebral palsy and spinal spasticity.
    Author: Barolat-Romana G, Davis R.
    Journal: J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry; 1980 Apr; 43(4):333-42. PubMed ID: 7373332.
    Abstract:
    Dorsal root stimulation, carried out during operation in 80 spastic cerebral palsy patients and in one spastic quadriplegic patient, allowed a study of abnormal monosynaptic and polysynaptic reflexes. Frequency-related depression of the monosynaptic reflex was not present; increased activity through non-suppressed polysynaptic pathways was shown.
