The Effect of Talocrural Joint Manipulation on Ankle Muscle Architecture: A Randomized Crossover Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Placebo Talocrural Joint Manipulation and Talocrural Joint Manipulation for Stroke. Completed, enrolled 36 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of talocrural joint manipulation on the ankle muscle architecture in patients with stroke. This study was registered retrospectively due to the U.S. government shutdown (October 1 to November 12, 2025), which prevented timely registration despite prior intent to register prospectively.

Interventions
This intervention is a classic method used to evaluate the effect of talocrural joint manipulation.
This technique, aiming to increase ankle dorsiflexion and mechanoreceptor activation, is based on the application of high velocity low amplitude traction to the joint.
