MSr, relapse group; MSs, stable group; CG, control group; OTS, One touch stockings of Cambridge; OTS-MC1/2/3/4/5/6, mean choice to correct of 1/2/3/4/5/6 moves of OTS.
Low score denotes better cognition.
Bonferroni test was used for post hoc analysis.
Tamhane test was used for post hoc analysis.
CG < MSr indicates that the means of groups CG and MSr significantly differ.
CG = MSs indicates that the means of groups CG and MSs do not differ significantly.
