There is increasing interest in using robotic devices to assist in movement training following
neurologic injuries such as stroke and spinal cord injury. This paper reviews control …

Background Stroke is the most common cause of disability in the developed world and can
severely degrade walking function. Robot-driven gait therapy can provide assistance to …

Objectives: To test the hypothesis that daily acute intermittent hypoxia (dAIH) and dAIH
combined with overground walking improve walking speed and endurance in persons with …

Robotic technologies are becoming more prevalent for treating neurological conditions in
clinical settings. We conducted a literature search of original articles to identify all studies …

Based on the suboptimal research pathways that finally led to multicenter randomized
clinical trials (MRCTs) of treadmill training with partial body weight support and of robotic …

Background Manual body weight supported treadmill training and robot-aided treadmill
training are frequently used techniques for the gait rehabilitation of individuals after stroke …

Neuroprosthetic technology and robotic exoskeletons are being developed to facilitate
stepping, reduce muscle efforts, and promote motor recovery. Nevertheless, the guidance …

Background. Converging evidence suggests that the amount of stepping practice is an
important training parameter that influences locomotor recovery poststroke. More recent data …

Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts spinal and supraspinal pathways, and this
process is reflected in changes in surface electromyography (sEMG). sEMG is an informative …

Background. Previous data suggest that the amount and aerobic intensity of stepping
training may improve walking poststroke. Recent animal and human studies suggest that …
