First seen Mar 12, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study measures how much force leg muscles can produce and how they use oxygen in people who have had a stroke or have sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). Researchers will test hip, knee, and ankle strength at different angles and speeds. The goal is to use this data to design better leg exoskeletons that can assist people with walking difficulties. The study includes 42 adults: stroke survivors, older adults with sarcopenia, and healthy volunteers.
