Effects of Temporary Functional Deafferentation in Chronic Stroke Patients: Who Profits More?

Figure 2

(a) Mean performance time needed and standard errors for the shape-sorter-drum test (SSDT) before (pre) and during (post) temporary functional deafferentation in male (right) and female stroke patients (left). Lower values indicate lower thresholds, that is, better performance. (b) Scatter plot illustrating the relationship (negative correlation) between changes in shape-sorter-drum test (ΔSSDT) scores during temporary functional deafferentation and sensory deficit of the stroke-affected index finger.
