Changes in walking speed following resistance training in people with multiple sclerosis: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Reduced walking ability, especially decreased gait speed, is one of the most common and disabling impairments reported by people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Considering the impact of muscle strength on walking ability, resistance training may have the potential to improve walking speed in MS. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate the effect of lower limb resistance training on walking speed in people with MS.
