Mean comfortable walking speed and mean dorsiflexion speed in early swing. Results expressed as mean±standard error of (A, primary outcome) the mean comfortable speed at month 3 and (B) the mean dorsiflexion speed calculated in early swing from the peak plantar flexion to the peak dorsiflexion, in the paretic limb using ankle-foot orthosis (AFO, n = 12) or semi-implanted selective functional electrical stimulation (SIS-FES, n = 11), without and with the device use (OFF and ON). Participants walked with shoes. The 2 gait assessments, M3 and M6, have been averaged in (B). *Post-hoc Bonferroni, p<0.05.
