Abstract

BACKGROUND: Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, with lower limb dysfunction being a common sequela that significantly impacts patients' mobility and quality of life. Robotic-assisted training has emerged as a promising intervention for gait rehabilitation post-stroke. This study aims to compare the effects of active and passive lower limb robotic training on gait recovery in stroke patients.
