Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 6 Jan 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to investigate the structural architectural changes of the Tibialis Anterior muscle in patients with subacute and chronic stroke using ultrasonography. The study will compare the morphological parameters (pennation angle, fascicle length, and muscle thickness) of the paretic side with the non-paretic side and analyze the relationship between these structural changes and the patients' clinical and demographic data.
