Background Muscle mass might be a possible predictor for walking function in patients with stroke; however, evidence is limited. Objective To investigate whether skeletal muscle mass is associated with walking function at discharge during the acute phase. Methods In this observational cohort study, we assessed skeletal muscle mass in patients with acute ischemic stroke using the noninvasive and portable multifrequency bio-impedance device. This device can easily be used in bedridden patients. Appendicular skeletal muscle mass …
