简要总结
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of talocrural joint manipulation on the ankle muscle architecture in patients with stroke.
详细描述
The study, utilizing a randomized crossover design, is planned to be conducted on a minimum of 26 patients with stroke who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients included in the study will be randomly assigned to receive both placebo talocrural joint manipulation and talocrural joint manipulation interventions.

结局指标
主要结局
Ankle Muscle Architecture
时间窗: Change from baseline ankle muscle architecture immediately after the intervention
The effect of talocrural joint manipulation on ankle muscle architecture will be evaluated using ultrasound imaging. The device will be used to analyze the pennation angle of the medial and lateral gastrocnemius muscles as well as the tibialis anterior muscle.
