1 Muscle force production and functional performance in spastic cerebral palsy: Relationship of cocontraction  Diane L. Damiano, PhD, PT, Tracy L. Martellotta, MS, Daniel J. Sullivan, DO, Kevin P. Granata, PhD, Mark F. Abel, MD  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 81, Issue 7, Pages (July 2000) DOI: /apmr Copyright © 2000 American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine and the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 The EMG data for the hamstrings and quadriceps muscle groups and the area of overlap (shaded) across a gait cycle for a single subject. (A) The area of overlap when each muscle is unscaled and expressed in millivolts; (B) the same data scaled to the respective percentage of the maximal voluntary contraction value for each muscle; (C) the same data scaled to the percentage maximal voluntary contraction as in (B) and then weighted by the estimated degree of weakness. Rquad, right quadriceps; Rham, right hamstring.
