Neural Mechanism Changes in Stroke Patients During Challenging Environments
For stroke patients, a challenging, unfamiliar, and more difficult task may increase the likelihood of brain activation to stimulate recovery. Pedal walking and walking with eyes-covered are both difficult and challenging tasks for stroke patients. The investigators intend to study the biomechanics and neural mechanisms of challenging pedal walking and walking with eyes covered.
Stroke participants will wear electroencephalogram electrode caps and perform three tasks: walking on a flat surface for 60 seconds, walking on pedal for 60 seconds, and walking with eyes covered for 60 seconds.
Inclusion: First-time occurrence of stroke confirmed by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imagingClinical diagnosis of stroke; Disease duration of more than 14 days， less than 1 year; Able to walk independently but with a lingering abnormal gait.
Exclusion: Severe cognitive impairment; Lesions accumulate in the brainstem; Lesions accumulate in the cerebellum; Impaired vision.
