Scientists map how stroke reshapes walking muscles
NCT ID NCT07314918
Summary
This study aimed to understand how stroke changes the structure of a key leg muscle that helps lift the foot while walking. Researchers used ultrasound imaging to compare the weak and strong leg muscles in 36 stroke survivors. They measured muscle thickness, fiber angles, and length to see how these physical changes relate to walking ability and recovery stage.
