From: Mechanisms of quadriceps muscle weakness in knee joint osteoarthritis: the effects of prolonged vibration on torque and muscle activation in osteoarthritic and healthy control subjects

Figure 5

Change in quadriceps surface electromyography amplitude following vibration. Percentage change in quadriceps surface electromyography (EMG) amplitude following vibration in the osteoarthritis and control groups. RMS, root mean square of EMG signals; VL, vastus lateralis; VM, vastus medialis. *Significant difference between groups (P ≤0.005). **Significant change from zero (P ≤0.001). Data are means and standard errors of the means.
