[The reaction of firing motor units to afferent pulses].
Afferent stimulation of the human motor units was unstable in its effect during the first 250 msec. Peristimulus time histograms were specifically individual for a single motor unit. The motor units altered their firing rate in response to afferent volleys depending on the background firing rate of the motoneurons.
