How mechanics of individual muscle-tendon units define knee and ankle joint function in health and cerebral palsy—a narrative review
This study reviews the relationship between muscle-tendon biomechanics and joint function, with a particular focus on how cerebral palsy (CP) affects this relationship. In healthy individuals, muscle size is a critical determinant of strength, with muscle volume, cross-sectional area, and moment arm...
