Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It was very hard to find appropriate candidates to participate in our current study. But finally,it was fortunate for us to find a welfare care center where we could find several individuals with too severe motor disability for them to walk without help but join our study. And most importantly, they understood the purpose and procedures of our study,and gave us written informed consents. Soon after they participated in this study,we found they could walk at 5km/h for 5min at a time 3days a week or more when they walked on a treadmill with their weight being suspended by the harness.It is a very promising finding.And we are currently studying the training effect on cardiovascular function in those individuals who could not walk. It will take some more time to achieve the definite results because the current situation allowed us to take 12 months to collect enough data for just 4 participants.
