CONSORT flow diagram of the study.
Changes in clinical assessment of (A) Five-Times-Sit-to-Stand Test (5XSTS) scores and (B) Berg Balance Scale (BBS) scores at each assessment (baseline [BSL], mid-training [MID], posttraining [POST], and 3-month follow-up [F/U]), with an additional assessment of participants with chronic stroke 1 month prior to baseline (pre-baseline [PRE-BSL]). Improvements were significant from BSL assessment to MID, POST, and F/U, with no differences among the latter groups. **P<.01.
Five-Times-Sit-to-Stand Test (5XSTS) representative trial for baseline (BSL) to posttraining assessment (POST) for 2 individuals classified as (A) severely impaired (self-selected speed <0.50 m/s) and (B) moderately impaired (self-selected speed=0.50–0.90 m/s). Tracings represents sacral marker vertical position (y-axis) versus time (x-axis), with gray arrows indicating start of successful ascent, black arrows indicating termination of ascent, and gray circles representing end descent. (C) Grouped data for total time, ascent time, descent time, and sitting time. *P<.05, **P<.01.
Knee and hip power profiles for paretic and nonparetic lower extremities for a representative participant: average over the 5 repeated, successful sit-to-stand attempts. (A) paretic knee, (B) nonparetic knee, (C) paretic hip, (D) nonparetic hip. BSL=baseline, POST=postintervention.
