Description
Summary:•Dysphagia in patients with stroke in recovery evaluated using the Kuchi-Kara Taberu Index.•Improved dysphagia linked to increased trunk muscle mass poststroke.•Findings highlight importance of dysphagia evaluation for trunk muscle mass recovery. The association between dysphagia and activities of daily living in patients with stroke has been reported, but the effect of improved dysphagia on the increase in trunk muscle mass is not clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between improved dysphagia and increased trunk muscle mass in older patients with stroke. This retrospective, case-control study enrolled patients with stroke aged ≥65 years. Dysphagia was evaluated using the Kuchi-Kara Taberu (KT) Index. Patients were classified into two groups according to KT Index at discharge: improved dysphagia group (≥57 scores) and non-improved dysphagia group (
