Summary

The purposes of this study are

1. To explore effect of sarcopenia on recovery of post stroke hemiplegia
2. To explore the effect of stroke on sarcopenia and relationship between the degree of sarcopenia and respiration and swallowing function
3. To quantify and qualify post stroke loss of muscle mass
4. To validity the use of echointensity and elastography in evaluation of sarcopenia.
