Does muscle size matter?: The relationship between muscle size and strength in children with cerebral palsy

Purpose: To investigate the muscle size–strength relationship of the knee flexors and extensors in children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) in relation to typically developing children (TD). Methods: Eighteen children with spastic Diplegia, Gross Motor Function Classification System I–III (mean 7 y...
