Therefore, our study aimed to investigate the effect of treadmill training (TT) using PNF lower-leg taping (PNFLT) on walking and balance ability in patients with stroke. There were a total of 27 patients: a stroke allocated control group (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>=13) and an experimental group (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>=14). The control group performed the TT and the experimental group performed the TT using PNF taping five times a week for 6 weeks. Walking and balance ability were measured using the 6-min walk test (6MWT), the 10-m walking test (10MWT), and the timed up and go test (TUG). Before and after the intervention, a paired <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">t<\/jats:italic>-test was performed to compare different within-group differences. Independent <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">t<\/jats:italic>-tests were performed to compare different between-group differences. All statistical significance levels were set at <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">\u03b1<\/jats:italic> of 0.05. After intervention, 6MWT, 10MWT and TUG improved significantly in PNFLT-TT and TT group (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.01). After intervention, the PNFLT-TT group showed more effective changes that the TT group in 6MWT, 10MWT, and TUG (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.05 and &lt;0.01) between PNFLT-TT and TT group. The intervention of PNFLT-TT was effective in improving walking and balance ability in patients with stroke. Basic elastic tape for the PNF concept and TT may be useful interventions as a program to improve walking and balance ability in patients with stroke.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1097\/mrr.0000000000000309","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,1]],"date-time":"2018-08-01T04:00:15Z","timestamp":1533096015000},"page":"343-348","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["The
