摘要：

Effects of transcutaneous electrical spinal cord stimulation (tESCS) on the parameters of stepping movements in healthy subjects were investigated during two kinds of activity: walking on a moving treadmill belt (active treadmill) as well as pushing the treadmill belt by effort of the legs (passive treadmill). It was found that the total interference electromyogram (EMG) activity during stepping performance on a passive treadmill was 1.5–2 times higher than during stepping on an active treadmill. In addition, the amplitude of angular displacement of the hip joint and ankle was 2.5 times and 1.7 times higher, respectively, during passive vs. active treadmill, while the duration of stepping cycle decreased by 19%. Although the muscles were exposed to different load and the parameters of motion on the active and passive treadmill were different, tESCS caused an increase in the total EMG activity in 96% of cases both on the active and on the passive treadmill. In both cases, the stepping cycle period decreased by 4–43% in all subjects. These results suggest that tESCS can affect voluntary stepping patterns under conditions of different afferent control. © 2017, Pleiades Publishing, Inc.
