Cross-sectional study of quadriceps properties and postural stability in patients with chronic stroke and limited vs. non-limited community ambulation.

abstract：:In developing a training program from standing to walking for a patient with a left parietal foot amputation and right hemiplegia, we found that the leg orthosis was effective in allowing the patient to regain the balancing ability when standing. The leg orthosis had practical effects on increasing walking distance. ...
