Does ability to walk reflect general functionality in inflammatory neuropathies?

ConclusionOur findings show that assessing only one construct of functionality (e.g. walking ability) does not reflect the full scope of daily/social functional deficits perceived by patients. The ability to walk shows a patient is doing better, but not necessarily doing well. The I‐RODS© bypasses these limitations.
