Values are means ± SD. Overall RM ANOVA results illustrate Group effects (across HS and TN conditions) and Treatment effects (across groups). Post hoc within-group differences between conditions are indicated. CMAP, compound muscle action potential; Min F, minimum F-wave latency of 20 trials; NCV, nerve conduction velocity; SP, cortical silent period; RMT, resting motor threshold.
Significant within-group difference from TN condition, determined by post hoc analysis.
