Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
* There is a demand for evidence whether treadmill therapy is more efficient than traditional walking training as an intervention for patients with hemiplegia after cerebral stroke.
Design.
* A randomized controlled trial.
Material.
* Stroke patients with moderate to severe functional deficits referred to inpatient medical rehabilitation.
Method.
* Comparing a treatment group receiving treadmill training with body weight support with a treatment group receiving conventional walking training.
Study aim:
* Investigate whether treadmill therapy is more effective than traditional functional training in restoring walking and transfer in patients with moderate to severe ambulatory deficits after stroke.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Treadmill therapy
Patients assigned to the "Treadmill therapy group" received daily 30 minutes specific walking training on "treadmill with body weight support" alternatively overground, and 30 minutes functional training, treated by a physiotherapist.
Treadmill therapy and conventional walking therapy.
The experimental group received 30 sessions of treadmill therapy with body weight support for a time period of 10 weeks.
The conventional group received traditional walking therapy for the same time period.
Conventional walking therapy
Patients assigned to the comparative conventional walking therapy group received daily 30 minutes specific traditional walking training overground and 30 minutes functional training, treated by a physiotherapist.
Treadmill therapy and conventional walking therapy.
The experimental group received 30 sessions of treadmill therapy with body weight support for a time period of 10 weeks.
The conventional group received traditional walking therapy for the same time period.
