Can anti-spastic medication facilitate robotic-locomotor training?
TL;DR: It is concluded that tizanidine can facilitate the effects of LTT on gait function in individuals with SCI that are higher functioning at baseline than those that did not in the TizLTT group, due to restoration of inhibitory mechanisms by tIZanidine.

Apparatus for restoring voluntary control of locomotion in neuromotor impairments
TL;DR: In this article, an apparatus for restoring voluntary control of locomotion in a subject suffering from a neuromotor impairment comprising a multidirectional trunk support system and a device for epidural electrical stimulation is described.

Aftereffects of robotic-assisted treadmill walking on the locomotor pattern in humans
TL;DR: Small adaptive changes were seen only in hip ROM during the initial normal walking phase immediately after assisted walking, compared with normal walking in the pre-condition, which increased gait cycle duration and step length significantly.

Entrenamiento de la marcha en el lesionado medular : uso de sistemas electromecánicos y estimulación transcraneal no invasiva
TL;DR: Un estudio longitudinal en pacientes con una lesion medular utilizando estos dos sistemas (Lokomat® o Gait Trainer GT I®) with una frecuencia y duracion del entrenamiento determinadas, cuyo correlato neurofisiologico se encuentra en una disminucion de the facilitacion del reflejo H inducida by EMT.

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.
Book
Gait Analysis: Normal and Pathological Function
TL;DR: This text encompasses the work of Dr Jacquelin Perry in her years as a therapist and surgeon focusing on the human gait, suitable for incorporating into many athletic training programmes, university physical therapy programmes and gait workshops.

International Standards for Neurological and Functional Classification of Spinal Cord Injury. American Spinal Injury Association.
TL;DR: The International Standards Booklet for Neurological and Functional Classification of Spinal Cord Injury (ISBWC) as mentioned in this paper is a standard for the classification of spinal cord injury. But it is not a classification of neurological disorders.
