List of abbreviations- M: male, F: female; L: left, R: right; AFO: ankle foot orthosis; SPC: single point cane; QC: quad cane; BMI: body mass index; TPS: time post stroke; ADF, APF: active ankle dorsiflexion and plantarflexion, respectively with neutral (90°) subtracted.
^bNonparetic range of motion for participants 1 and 6 are marked with dashes to indicate missing data because it was not measured in these two individuals.
