[Purpose] This study aimed to examine the effects of unilateral vibratory stimulation on contralateral homonymous muscle. [Participants and Methods] The study included 14 participants without a history of any disease. Participants were tested under three separate conditions: vibratory stimulation, pressure stimulation, and rest. F-waves were measured at two time points for 15 seconds in the rest position under each of the testing conditions. [Results] The F/M amplitude ratio analysis showed interactions between the vibratory stimulation‒pressure stimulation and vibratory stimulation‒rest conditions. The F-wave persistence analysis demonstrated interactions between the vibratory and pressure stimulation conditions. Vibratory stimulation significantly decreased the F/M amplitude ratio and F-wave persistence at two time points, before and during the stimulation. [Conclusion] The vibratory stimulation used in this study could suppress the contralateral homonymous muscle tone.
[目的] 本研究旨在探讨单侧振动刺激对同侧同名肌肉的影响。[参与者与方法] 该研究纳入了14名无任何疾病史的参与者。参与者在三种不同条件下接受测试:振动刺激、压力刺激和休息。在每种测试条件下,于休息位的两个时间点测量15秒的F波。[结果] F/M波幅比分析显示振动刺激 - 压力刺激和振动刺激 - 休息条件之间存在交互作用。F波持续时间分析表明振动刺激和压力刺激条件之间存在交互作用。振动刺激在刺激前和刺激期间的两个时间点均显著降低了F/M波幅比和F波持续时间。[结论] 本研究中使用的振动刺激可抑制同侧同名肌肉张力。
