Note. Data are shown for all subjects, the control group alone, and the stroke group alone. Values for age (years), mass (kg), and BMI (kg/m2) are shown for both groups. Values for time since stroke (years), walking velocity (m/s), Fugl–Meyer scores, and hyperreflexia are also shown for the stroke group. Values for hyperreflexia are count (%). All other values are mean (SD). BMI = body mass index; ROM = range of motion
