Time profile of kinematic synergies of stroke gait.

Despite the sensory-motor deficits and the atypical kinematic behavior, stroke patients can produce joint covariations to control the center of mass trajectory in the forward progression plane, but the modulation of the synergy is impaired, reflecting altered adjustments, especially in the paretic limb of subjects with worse levels of motor recovery.
