Results

With regard to walking speed, the improvement in the between-group comparison of the change (delta) was greater in the control group (p = 0.02). On the other hand, in the gait assessment, although the between-group comparison using an analysis of covariance with pre-intervention values as a covariate did not yield a statistically significant difference, the effect size was large (biased eta-squared = 0.26), and the robot group showed better results.
