(A) Mean value of shear elastic modulus and standard deviation of the paretic (p: white bars) and non-paretic (n: gray bars) flexor carpi radialis muscle from all subjects in different angle. All subjects (n = 15) SME was greater in the paretic muscle in each angle (p < 0.001). A significant increase was found in paretic side from 0° to 50° (p < 0.001, post-hoc tests on the difference angle between 0° and 30°, p = 0.016, 0° and 40°, p = 0.001, 0° and 50°, p < 0.001, 10° and 50°, p = 0.001), but no significant in non-paretic side (p = 0.05). (B) Mean value of components by NeuroFlexor method and standard deviation of the paretic (p: white bars) and non-paretic (n: gray bars) forearm flexor muscle from all subjects. The mean value of NC (Neural Component), EC (Elasticity Component), and VC (viscosity component) of all subjects (n = 15) was greater in the paretic side (p < 0.05). *Represents statistically significant between the groups, ^#Represents statistically significant with different angles within the group.
