Maximal Isometric Strength Differences in Quadriceps of MS Patients

This study investigates the differences in maximal isometric strength of the quadriceps between strong and weak individuals living with multiple sclerosis (MS). Results, presented as mean ± standard deviation, indicate statistically significant differences in group means (p < 0.05). The findings emphasize the importance of understanding bilateral differences in lower limb performance in individuals with MS, providing insights for rehabilitation strategies. The research was published in the Journal of Rehabilitation Research and Development and explores the implications of muscle strength on mobility in MS patients.
