Stroke Survivors' bone health under the microscope
NCT ID NCT07059468
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study looked at 44 stroke patients to see how their bone density differs between the paralyzed and non-paralyzed leg. Researchers measured bone density in the hip and spine using a special X-ray scan. The goal was to better understand which clinical factors are linked to bone loss after a stroke.
