Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The primary objectives include:
Investigating whether cerebello-spinal direct current stimulation improves gait and functional mobility in participants with chronic stroke.
Assessing any potential side effects associated with the method.
Researchers will conduct a comparative analysis between cerebello-spinal direct current stimulation and a sham procedure (which mimics the stimulation without any actual effect) to assess its effectiveness in addressing gait disorders and enhancing mobility.
Participants in the trial will:
Undergo cerebello-spinal direct current stimulation combined with treadmill training or a sham procedure with treadmill training daily over a two-week period.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Active cerebello-spinal direct current stimulation
csDCS influences both ascending and descending spinal pathways and reflex excitability, promoting prolonged functional neuroplastic changes.

Sham cerebello-spinal direct current stimulation
Treadmill training with masking for cerebello-spinal direct current stimulation
Sham Comparator
Masking for cerebello-spinal direct current stimulation involves the electric current stopping after 30 seconds, providing a sensation without producing neuromodulation.
