Challenges cell-size models of motoneuron rheobase; hypothesis-generating for excitability parameters with no current clinical implications.
In cat spinal motoneurones, rheobase is strongly correlated with input conductance and membrane time constant rather than cell size.
Gustafsson et al. (1984) studied this question.
Synapse has enriched 3 closely related papers on similar clinical questions. Consider them for comparative context:
