3 Fig 2 PAD prior to and after training in the training and control groups. A lower ratio of test H-reflex/conditioning H-reflex represents a stronger PAD. In the upper panel, the bars show mean and SDs of test-H-reflex amplitude normalized to their respective conditioning H-reflexes in the training (n=7) and the control (n=7) groups during pretest (black bars) and 4 weeks (white bars) conditions at stimulation frequencies of 0.1Hz, 1Hz, 5Hz, and 10Hz. The lower panel shows that the ratio of test H-reflex/conditioning H-reflex decreases significantly after 4 weeks in the training group but not in the control group.

4 Fig 3 PAD for 1 participant who completed 12 weeks of training. The y axis showed the amplitude of test H-reflex normalized to their respective conditioning H-reflexes. A lower ratio of test H-reflex/conditioning H-reflex represents a stronger PAD. The x axis showed the testing frequencies. The 4 lines represent the values at prior to, 4, 8, and 12 weeks of CPM training. Note that the prominent PAD pattern was shown at 4 weeks of training. No significant improvement in PAD was shown at 8 and 12 weeks of CPM training.
