a
Subjects are listed in order of impairment level from most impaired at the top to least impaired at the bottom
b
Maximal adduction of the paretic arm normalized to the non-paretic arm
c
Percentage elbow torque generated during background adduction normalized to maximal elbow flexion or extension respectively (+ signifies flexion, − signifies extension)
