Baseline data of the groups.

Metrics	Younger group (n = 20)	Older group (n = 20)
DemTect	17.8 (± 0.6)*	15.9 (± 1.5)*
MMSE	29.7 (± 0.6)	29.6 (± 0.6)
2-Point (mm)	2.1 (± 0.2)	2.2 (± 0.4)
MDT (mN)	0.28 (± 0.1)	0.57 (± 0.5)

Mean values are shown ± standard deviation. Based on a significant main effect of the factor group (younger group vs. older group), post hoc tests were conducted. *Indicate a significant difference between younger and older participants, p-value ≤ 0.01.
