5.2. Limitations of the study
stroke, hemiplegic
STROKE
This study had the limitation of a small sample size of stroke patients from a single medical center, which does not provide a population-based representation of stroke patients. Additionally, we did not observe the recovery of foot dorsiflexion in patients with longer workouts. In the future, larger multicenter studies could be performed. The long-term efficacy of the treatment and the function of foot dorsiflexion in hemiplegic patients were observed.
