2 Fig 1 An example result of the upper-limb pendulum test. Full extension is defined as 0°; “a” is the maximal swing angle, “b” is the final steady angle, and both are referenced to the initial position. The numbers inside the plot show the number of swings.

3 Fig 2 Age distribution of (A) subjects and (B) body weights. Legend: shaded bars, male groups; open bars, female groups. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  , 82-85DOI: ( /j.apmr )

4 Fig 3 Age distribution of (A) the number of swings and (B) the relaxation index. Legend: shaded bars, male groups; open bars, female groups. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  , 82-85DOI: ( /j.apmr )

5 Fig 4 Age distribution of (A) the stiffness constant and (B) the damping coefficient. Legend: shaded bars, male groups; open bars, female groups. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  , 82-85DOI: ( /j.apmr )

6 Fig 5 Age distribution of (A) K/W and (B) C/W. Legend: shaded bars, male groups; open bars, female groups. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  , 82-85DOI: ( /j.apmr )
