Scientists probe why walking changes after stroke and spinal injury

NCT ID NCT07467382

Summary

This study aims to understand how stroke or spinal cord injury affects the Achilles tendon and calf muscle during walking. Researchers will measure tendon stiffness, muscle strength, and walking patterns in 60 participants (40 with neurological conditions and 20 healthy volunteers). The goal is to learn why some people develop a toe-walking pattern (equinus) while others do not, which could inform future rehabilitation approaches.
