  1. Values are presented as mean ± SD
  2. GMFM gross motor function measure
  3. d – Cohen’s effect size, rate of substantive significance of differences
  4. d = 0.2–0.5 (small difference), d = 0.50–0.80 (medium-sized difference), d = 0.80–1.2 (large difference), d > 1.2 (very large difference)
  5. p – statistical significance level, significant at p < 0.05
  6. Z – value of the test criterion (statistical calculation) was obtained using the Mann-Whitney U test
