Sarcomere length, fascicle length, and serial sarcomere number are preserved in paretic hindlimb muscles following chronic stroke in rats despite persistent motor impairment

Stephanie A. Ross, Sydney N. Dorscher, Timothy R. Leonard, Ruth A. Seerattan, Dale Corbett, Walter Herzog

This study finds that chronic stroke in rats does not significantly alter sarcomere length or dispersion in paretic hindlimb muscles despite persistent motor impairment.

Force sharing between plantarflexor muscles in sheep during treadmill gait

Stephanie A. Ross, Florian S. Schumacher, Esthevan Machado, Andrew Sawatsky, Timothy R. Leonard, Keiji Hopfner, W. Michael Scott, Fransiska Marie Bossuyt, William R. Taylor, Walter Herzog

This study examines force sharing between plantarflexor muscles in sheep during treadmill gait, finding that both muscles increase force with speed and incline, but the superficial digital flexor consistently produces greater absolute force than the medial gastrocnemius.
