Results for the gait test performed at individually preferred speeds are displayed for the JUMP and the inactive CTRL for the baseline measurements (BDC-14 and BDC-1) and the recovery phase (R+0, R+7, R+13, R+28 and R+90) after bed-rest. Values are normalized to BDC-1. Clustered by spatiotemporal parameter, gait variability and gait kinematics the findings indicate significant differences for R+0 and R+7 compared to baseline. Values are means ± SE.
indicates a significant difference compared to baseline. The ≈ symbol non-inferiority compared to baseline. CV, coefficient of variance; GCT, gait cycle time; COM, center of mass; Student's t-test.
