Relationship between longitudinal changes in skeletal muscle characteristics over time and functional recovery during intensive rehabilitation of patients with subacute stroke

CONCLUSIONS: The present study revealed that knee extension muscle strength on the non-paretic side and quadriceps and tibialis anterior thickness on the paretic side significantly improved over time and that changes in the paretic side quadriceps thickness were associated with the recovery of balance ability.PMID:34180362 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2021.1940724
