Inclined treadmill walking kinetics of the non-paretic leg in early post-stroke survivors: an observational case-control study

The study demonstrates that treating the non-paretic leg as a healthy limb is inadequate and shows the necessity for rehabilitation approaches that target both legs individually. Focusing on motor control and force steadiness instead of simply strength can more effectively reduce maladaptive variability and enhance safe and efficient walking patterns.

Abstract

The study demonstrates that treating the non-paretic leg as a healthy limb is inadequate and shows the necessity for rehabilitation approaches that target both legs individually. Focusing on motor control and force steadiness instead of simply strength can more effectively reduce maladaptive variability and enhance safe and efficient walking patterns.
