“Motor Unit Activity and Synaptic Inputs Reduced in Cervical Spinal Cord Injury Leading to Muscle Atrophy and Force Variability”

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38117916

In individuals with cervical spinal cord injury, motor unit activity and synaptic inputs to motoneurons in the caudal region of the injured spinal cord are significantly reduced, leading to disuse muscle atrophy and increased muscle force variability.
