Table 2 Normalized peak isometric torque (% BM × TL) for residual and intact limb hip muscle groups in unilateral lower limb prosthesis users, as well as age- and gender-matched controls. Data are presented as median ± median absolute deviation (MAD)

From: After scaling to body size hip strength of the residual limb exceeds that of the intact limb among unilateral lower limb prosthesis users
