Kinematics and muscle activity of individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury during treadmill stepping with and without manual assistance.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Powered exoskeletons are a promising approach to restore the ability to walk after spinal cord injury (SCI). However, current exoskeletons remain limited in their walking speed and ability to support tasks of daily living, such as stair climbing or overcoming ramps. Moreover, training progress for such advan...
