Sigmoid function parameters were estimated from the sigmoid fitted to the soleus H-reflexes (corresponding to below Ia afferent threshold until the H-reflex reached maximal amplitudes) normalized to the homonymous maximal M-wave and plotted against the stimulation intensities that were normalized to the S50-Hmax observed before treatment. This was performed for each subject separately and values were averaged based on study group. R2 denotes the best fit; m, slope parameter of the function; S50, Stimulus at 50% of maximal H-reflex. Values are indicated as mean ± SD.
