Parameters were extracted using the Matlab-based tool realized by Merlo and collaborators [23], before (T0), during (Tm) and after (T1) intervention. P values refer to the nonparametric paired Wilcoxon test. HPR: Hand Path Ratio; horOS: horizontal overshooting; verOS: vertical overshooting; Mean/Max vel: mean/maximum velocity; NvelPeak: number of velocity peaks; Norm jerk: normalized jerk.
