Ankle voluntary movement enhancement following robotic-assisted locomotor training in spinal cord injury

TL;DR: Improvements of the kinematic and kinetic parameters of the ankle voluntary movement, and their correlation with the functional assessments, support the therapeutic effect of robotic-assisted locomotor training on motor impairment in chronic iSCI.

Effect of robotic locomotor training in an individual with Parkinson's disease: a case report

TL;DR: The results supported the feasibility of using robot-assisted gait therapy in the rehabilitation of an individual with Parkinson's disease, and further studies are needed to assess a potential advantage of the Lokomat system over conventional locomotor training for this population.

Metabolic Responses to 4 Different Body Weight-Supported Locomotor Training Approaches in Persons With Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury

TL;DR: DGO and TM walking training was less effective in increasing V˙o2 and velocity across participant-selected walking speeds, while TS and OG training was more effective in improving these parameters and also walking economy.

The Timed “Up & Go”: A Test of Basic Functional Mobility for Frail Elderly Persons

TL;DR: This study evaluated a modified, timed version of the “Get‐Up and Go” Test (Mathias et al, 1986) in 60 patients referred to a Geriatric Day Hospital and suggested that the timed “Up & Go’ test is a reliable and valid test for quantifying functional mobility that may also be useful in following clinical change over time.
