	Brachioradialis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The brachioradialis is a stronger elbow flexor when the radioulnar joint (forearm) is in a midposition between supination and pronation.
		When the forearm is pronated, the brachioradialis is more active during elbow flexion since the biceps brachii is in a mechanical disadvantage.
		When the forearm is pronated, the brachioradialis tends to supinate as it flexes.

	Brachioradialis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Brachioradialis is a muscle of the forearm that acts to flex the forearm at the elbow.
		It is attached to the distal radius and the lateral supracondylar ridge of the humerus.
		The brachioradialis flexes the forearm at the elbow.

	Letters to the Editor
		Brachioradialis reflex is one among the other deep tendon reflexes which are clinically muscle stretch reflexes.
		This is especially true of the brachioradialis reflex which is often not elicited even by tapping at the lower one-third of the lateral surface of the forearm or at its tendon of origin above the lateral epicondyle of the humerus in practical clinical examination of children.
		Additionally, the authors have found that this contraction by direct tapping is seen most prominently in the brachioradialis muscle and also in almost all children (as compared to adults).

		The brachioradialis is a semisupinator and semipronator in that it performs the first half of both movements but does not complete either.
		Kaz was and a trim 325 pounds, and he performed lifts of 661 pounds on the bench press with a relatively close grip, 885 pounds on the dead-lift and 920 pounds on the squat.
		The brachioradialis has a long tendon that goes from the area where the bulk of the muscle stops all the way to the wrist.

	Chapter 10: THE FOREARM
		The brachioradialis can be seen and felt on the lateral side of the elbow and forearm when these are flexed.
		The radial nerve enters the forearm between the brachioradialis and brachialis and, at or inferior to the level of the lateral epicondyle, divides into superficial and deep branches.
		The brachioradialis and extensor carpi radialis longus (and often brevis) are supplied by the radial nerve.

		A branch is given off to the brachioradialis (described as C5-6; mainly C6) and to extensor carpi radialis longus (C6-7) about 2-3 cm proximal to the elbow.

		The brachialis acts to flex the ulna and the brachioradialis acts to flex the radius.
		The brachioradialis is a stronger elbow flexor when the radioulnar joint (forearm) is in neutral position between supination and pronation.
		The brachioradialis originates from the lower part of the humerus (upper arm bone) and the brachialis originates from about the middle of the humerus.

	Year Book: The Distally-Based Brachioradialis Muscle Flap - Wheeless' Textbook of Orthopaedics
		The use of the brachioradialis muscle for soft tissue cover of the hand and distal forearm was studied.
		Technique.--The brachioradialis muscle arises from the upper two thirds of the supracondylar ridge of the humerus and the lateral intermuscular septum, and inserts through the flat tendon into the lateral aspect of the distal radius (Fig 4-4).
		With a lazy S incision, the vascular pedicle is exposed and the radial artery, recurrent radial artery, and the brachioradialis muscle are divided proximally and raised as a unit.

		It follows the spiral groove of the humerus, piercing the lateral intermuscular septum (10 cm proximal to the lateral epicondyle) from posterior to anterior, and runs between the brachialis and brachioradialis to lie anterior to the lateral condyle of the humerus.
		The superficial fascia is incised, and the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve is isolated and protected as it emerges between the biceps and brachialis.
		Proximally, watch for the branches to the brachioradialis and the extensor carpi radialis longus and brevis as well as the superficial branch of the radial nerve.

	An Unmatched Analysis of The Elbow Joint
		The brachioradialis peaks at approximately 90 degrees of elbow flexion (49, 76, 48, 55).
		As you no doubt may have predicted, the brachioradialis was most active during full pronation, and of course the brachialis was also extremely active.
		Both the brachioradialis as well as the pronator teres are not normally recruited unless they face resistance.

		The supinator reflex is testing the reflex motor arc associated with the brachioradialis muscle.
		This normally causes contraction of the brachioradialis and hence flexion of the elbow.
		An inverted brachioradialis reflex is associated with an absent biceps jerk and an exaggerated triceps jerk.

	Cervical Spondylitic Myelopathy: Useful Clinical Signs
		The reflex is seen during testing of the brachioradialis reflex.
		As the brachioradialis tendon is struck with the reflex hammer at the distal end of the radius, a diminished response is noted in the brachioradialis along with a reflex contraction of the spastic finger flexors, hence, the term "inverted radial reflex."
		The "finger escape sign" is noted in the patient who has deficient adduction, extension, or both in the ulnar two or three digits of the affected hand.
