Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
It is known that the treatment of children with cancer has negative effects on cognition, muscle strength, balance, and gait. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of dual-task training, which is based on the principle of simultaneous performance of cognitive tasks and motor tasks, on muscle strength, balance, and gait.
