BackgroundThe ability to elicit a rapid, reactive step to recover balance after a postural destabilization is paramount to fall prevention. In response to a given balance perturbation magnitude, people after stroke display impaired spatiotemporal stepping kinematics. Yet, spatiotemporal stepping kinematics at individualized perturbation magnitudes after stroke and the underlying neural correlates remain unknown. Here, we tested whether stepping kinematics differ in people after stroke at individ...
