Proprioception After Unilateral Stroke: Changes in the Affected and Unaffected Lower Limbs Over Time
Ankle proprioception in both lower limbs decreased over time after a unilateral stroke, with proprioceptive acuity on the "unaffected" side diminishing linearly in the same way as that on the affected side. These observed continuing deficits in lower limb proprioception among stroke survivors raise implications for clinical neurorehabilitation.
