Trunk muscle performance scores for chronic stroke patients (n = 18) as a percentage of healthy-matched subjects (n = 18) at the velocities of 60°/s and 120°/s.
| Variables of muscle performance | Velocity 60°/s | Velocity 120°/s |
|---|---|---|
| Flexor peak torque | 60% | 53% |
| Extensor peak torque | 54% | 53% |
| Flexor torque at 90° | 56.20% | 36.58% |
| Extensor torque at 90° | 57.92% | 30.65% |
| Flexor total muscular work | 51.27% | 38.03% |
| Extensor total muscular work | 47.97% | 39.52% |
| Flexor total muscular work normalized by trunk mass | 55.57% | 40% |
| Extensor total muscular work normalized by trunk mass | 51.40% | 42% |
n, number of subjects; s, seconds.
