Bar plots of walking speed (m/s) and net energy cost (in J/kg/m) for the usual care orthoses and specialist care orthoses, respectively for all orthosis groups combined (upper panels A and B) and for subgroups of subjects provided with specialist care ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs), stance-control knee-ankle-foot orthoses (SC-KAFOs) and locked knee-ankle-foot orthoses (KAFOs) (lower panels C and D). Note that orthoses were categorized based on the provided specialist care orthoses, thus the usual care orthoses in panels C and D do not necessarily represent the same orthosis types. In all plots, error bars represent the standard deviation.</p
