In the researchers' words
This single-center randomized controlled trial evaluates the effects of combining overground robot-assisted gait training (o-RAGT) with recumbent cycling (RC) compared with RC alone in patients with subacute stroke at risk of sarcopenia. The study examines changes in muscle characteristics (muscle mass and quality), falls efficacy, and physical function following a 4-week intervention. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either combined o-RAGT and RC or RC alone. The findings aim to inform the potential role of overground robot-assisted gait training as an adjunctive intervention in stroke rehabilitation.
