Assessment of low-force exercise in human paralyzed muscle
The loss of physical activity after a spinal cord injury results in musculoskeletal deterioration and metabolic dysfunction. Rehabilitation often overlooks the importance of physical activity in the paralyzed limbs for systemic metabolic health. There is a need for safe, feasible exercise interventi...
