Structural and Organizational Strategies of Locomotor Modules during Landing in Patients with Chronic Ankle Instability

Human locomotion involves the coordinated activation of a finite set of modules, known as muscle synergy, which represent the motor control strategy of the central nervous system. However, most prior studies have focused on isolated muscle activation, overlooking the modular organization of motor behavior. Therefore, to enhance comprehension of muscle coordination dynamics during multi-joint movements in chronic ankle instability (CAI), exploring muscle synergies during landing in CAI patients is imperative.
