Clinical trials: Neuromuscular Function
Cubital Tunnel Syndrome
Electrical Nerve Stimulation of the Ulnar Nerve
Cubital tunnel syndrome is caused by compression of the ulnar nerve at the elbow. This leads to symptoms such as chronic hand weakness, numbness and pain.

Aging, Fatigue
Description of Physical Activity Effect on Neuromuscular Fatigue of Older People
There is a decrease in cardiovascular and neuromuscular functions, which leads to reduced performance with advancing age. Physical activity provides health benefits, prevents and treats cardiovascular and neuromuscular disease.

Muscle Weakness, Muscle Atrophy
Effect of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Combined With Blood Flow Restriction on Muscular and Cardiovascular Function
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) has recently been combined with blood flow restriction (BFR) in controlled trials and has shown increased muscular strength and size compared with NMES and BFR on their own.
