This study aims to evaluate the relationship between sarcopenia and functional outcomes with temporal muscle mass change.
It is well known that stroke increases the risk of developing sarcopenia . In addition, prestroke sarcopenia is associated with worse functional outcomes in patients with stroke. Temporal muscle thickness (TMT) has recently been proposed as a new marker of whole-body muscle mass and function. Measurement of temporal muscle mass by computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been studied in the literature in recent years. All stroke patients undergo cranial CT or MRI examinations at the time of admission. By evaluating the temporal muscle mass of these patients with these examinations, information about pre-stroke muscle mass and sarcopenia can be obtained. Ultrasonography (USG), on the other hand, may be a more accessible, less expensive, and safer option for assessing muscle mass in the follow-up of stroke patients. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between sarcopenia and functional outcomes with temporal muscle mass change by MRI/CT at admission and by USG in the chronic period.

| The Functional Independence Measure (FIM) | FIM is a scale that assesses 18 activities, including self-care, sphincter control, transfer, movement, communication, and social awareness. Total scores range from 18 to 126 (dependent in all domains - independent in all domains). | Baseline |

| Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) | It categorizes poststroke disability into six levels ranging from 0 to 5, with absence of symptoms rated as 0 and severe disability or bedriddenness rated as 5. An mRS score of 2 or less was defined as a good outcome, and an mRS score above 2 was defined as a poor outcome. | Baseline |
