Immediate Effects of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Corticospinal Excitability of the Quadriceps in People with Knee Osteoarthritis

Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is prevalent and knee replacement surgeries are increasing. Quadriceps weakness is one of the most modifiable risk factors and treatments for knee OA, but strengthening efforts are limited by neural mechanisms that contribute to persistent quadriceps inhibition and pain. Interventions that affect neural mechanisms may serve as valuable adjuncts to exercis … Read more
