The first years of life represent an important phase of maturation of the central nervous
system, processing of sensory information, posture control and acquisition of the locomotor …

Background: Studies have demonstrated that ambulatory children and adolescents with
cerebral palsy demonstrate atypical gait patterns. Out of numerous gait variables …

The ability to walk contributes considerably to physical health and overall well-being,
particularly in children with motor disability, and is therefore prioritized as a rehabilitation …

In this paper, we present a soft-inflatable exosuit to assist knee extension during gait training
for stroke rehabilitation. The soft exosuit is designed to provide 25% of the knee moment …

Background There is growing interest in the use of biofeedback-augmented gait training in
cerebral palsy (CP). Audiovisual, sensorimotor, and immersive biofeedback paradigms are …

Intrinsic gait variability (GV), ie, fluctuations in the regularity of gait patterns between
repetitive cycles, is inherent to the sensorimotor system and influenced by factors such as …

To investigate how early injuries to develo** motor regions of the brain affect different
forms of gait, we compared the spatiotemporal locomotor patterns during forward (FW) and …

Background Instability of the knee joint during gait is frequently reported by patients with
knee osteoarthritis or an anterior cruciate ligament rupture. The assessment of instability in …

Switching locomotion direction is a common task in daily life, and it has been studied
extensively in healthy people. Little is known, however, about the locomotor adjustments …

Healthy aging is associated with reduced corticospinal drive to leg muscles during walking.
Older adults also exhibit slower or reduced gait adaptation compared to young adults. The …
