^*Difference between pre- and post-treatment is significant (p<0.05)

T-test was used for comparison of preand post-treatment continuous measures within the group. A sign test was used for ordinal variables. M±SD:Means,Standard Deviations, FES: Functional electric stimulation, GMFM -88: Gross Motor Function Measure-88, WeeFim: Functional Independence Measure for Children, MAS: Modified Ashworth scale, SMK:selective motor control, XV1:as slow as possible, slower than the rate of natural drop of the limb segment under gravity ,XV3:as fast as possible, faster than the rate of natural drop of the limb segment under gravity
