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

T-test was used for comparison of pre- and 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
