The purpose of this study was to examine the weight bearing exercise effect on bone mineral density(BMD) and upper extremity function in the female stroke patients. The subject were 24 female stroke patients, randomly assigned to a weight-bearing group(n=12, WBG) and a control group(n=12, CG). The experiments were conducted for three times per week for eight weeks, radial BMD and MFT(Manual Function Test) of both groups were measured before the experiments and eight weeks after the beginning of the experiments. In conclusion, it was found that there was a siginificant increase of the weight-bearing group radial BMD and MFT score, The results suggest that weight bearing exercise is effective in improving BMD and upper extremity function, thus, can be utilized in stroke rehabilitation.
