Muscle Tone Physiology and Abnormalities.
Ganguly J, Kulshreshtha D, Almotiri M, Jog M. Ganguly J, et al. Toxins (Basel). 2021 Apr 16;13(4):282. doi: 10.3390/toxins13040282. Toxins (Basel). 2021. PMID: 33923397 Free PMC article. Review.
The simple definition of tone as the resistance to passive stretch is physiologically a complex interlaced network encompassing neural circuits in the brain, spinal cord, and muscle spindle. Disorders of muscle tone can arise from dysfunction in these pathways and m …

Spasticity after stroke: physiology, assessment and treatment.
Thibaut A, Chatelle C, Ziegler E, Bruno MA, Laureys S, Gosseries O. Thibaut A, et al. Brain Inj. 2013;27(10):1093-105. doi: 10.3109/02699052.2013.804202. Epub 2013 Jul 25. Brain Inj. 2013. PMID: 23885710 Free article. Review.
Inter- and intra-rater reliability of the Modified Ashworth Scale: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Meseguer-Henarejos AB, Sánchez-Meca J, López-Pina JA, Carles-Hernández R. Meseguer-Henarejos AB, et al. Eur J Phys Rehabil Med. 2018 Aug;54(4):576-590. doi: 10.23736/S1973-9087.17.04796-7. Epub 2017 Sep 13. Eur J Phys Rehabil Med. 2018. PMID: 28901119 Free article. Review.
INTRODUCTION: The Modified Ashworth Scale is the most widely clinical scale used to measure the increase of muscle tone. Reliability is not an immutable property of a scale and can vary as a function of the variability and composition of the sample to which it is administe …

Spasticity Management After Stroke.
Bethoux F. Bethoux F. Phys Med Rehabil Clin N Am. 2015 Nov;26(4):625-39. doi: 10.1016/j.pmr.2015.07.003. Epub 2015 Sep 26. Phys Med Rehabil Clin N Am. 2015. PMID: 26522902 Review.
The diagnosis and the assessment of spasticity are based on clinical examination, in particular resistance to passive movement and abnormal involuntary muscle contraction. Nonpharmacologic and pharmacologic treatments are commonly combined to manage spasticity, based on pr …

Pathophysiology of spasticity: implications for neurorehabilitation.
Trompetto C, Marinelli L, Mori L, Pelosin E, Currà A, Molfetta L, Abbruzzese G. Trompetto C, et al. Biomed Res Int. 2014;2014:354906. doi: 10.1155/2014/354906. Epub 2014 Oct 30. Biomed Res Int. 2014. PMID: 25530960 Free PMC article. Review.
As well as hyperexcitable stretch reflexes, secondary soft tissue changes in the paretic limbs enhance muscle resistance to passive displacements. Therefore, in patients with UMNS, hypertonia can be divided into two components: hypertonia mediated by the stre …

Pathophysiology of spasticity in stroke.
Burke D, Wissel J, Donnan GA. Burke D, et al. Neurology. 2013 Jan 15;80(3 Suppl 2):S20-6. doi: 10.1212/WNL.0b013e31827624a7. Neurology. 2013. PMID: 23319482 Review.
Spasticity does not necessarily require treatment: in fact, some patients rely on the increased muscle tone to help support otherwise weak muscle contractions for stance and locomotion. In addition, much of the increase in muscle tone arises from changes in …

Comparative efficacy and safety of skeletal muscle relaxants for spasticity and musculoskeletal conditions: a systematic review.
Chou R, Peterson K, Helfand M. Chou R, et al. J Pain Symptom Manage. 2004 Aug;28(2):140-75. doi: 10.1016/j.jpainsymman.2004.05.002. J Pain Symptom Manage. 2004. PMID: 15276195 Free article. Review.
Skeletal muscle relaxants are a heterogeneous group of medications used to treat two different types of underlying conditions: spasticity from upper motor neuron syndromes and muscular pain or spasms from peripheral musculoskeletal conditions. Although widely used for thes …
