Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the long-term effects of isokinetic rehabilitation training in patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). The main question it aims to answer is:

• Does isokinetic training at fixed angular velocity improve muscle strength and functional recovery in SMA patients?

Participants will:

  • Perform isokinetic training using a portable device with a fixed angular velocity.
  • Undergo long-term rehabilitation sessions, with assessments of muscle strength and overall functional improvement over the training period.
