Article Synopsis
- The study explores the links between walking pace and grip strength with mortality rates in stroke survivors, highlighting that both factors are critical indicators of health.
- During a follow-up of about 12.6 years, it was found that stroke survivors with slow walking paces had double the risk of dying from stroke or any cause compared to those with average/brisk walking speeds.
- Those with both slow walking and low grip strength faced the highest mortality risk, suggesting that enhancing physical abilities could potentially improve survival rates for stroke survivors.
