The significant correlations between bilateral difference and functional conditions. BB, biceps brachii muscle; ES L4, erector spinae muscle at L4 levels; MG, medial gastrocnemius muscle; FM, Fugl-Meyer Assessment; JP, joint pain. r and p values came from the spearman tests. Among all elderly, there were significant correlations between the bilateral difference of PPT in BB (A), ES L4 (B) and MG (C) and FM-JP, and between the bilateral difference of PPT in MG and Barthel Index (D) (p < 0.05)
