Tarsal fusion for pes equinovarus deformity improves gait capacity in chronic stroke patients.

Kinematic and kinetic parameters Neither kinematics nor kinetics of the paretic side improved after surgery (range of motion ankle; t [ 9 ] = − 1.31, p = 0.220; peak ankle moment t [ 9 ] = 0.57, p = 0.580; peak ankle power t [ 9 ] = − 0.52, p = 0.620), but peak ankle moment on the nonparetic side increased significantly (from 1.14 ± 0.22 to 1.31 ± 0.26 Nm/kg, t [ 8 ] = − 2.87, p = 0.021), while peak ankle power showed a tendency towards significance (from 1.68 ± 0.75 to 2.35 ± 0.77 W, t [ 8 ] = − 2.14, p = 0.065) (Fig. 2 ).
