Abbreviations: Mean ± SEM of average path velocity (VAP), straight line velocity (VSL), curvilinear velocity (VCL), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH), beat/cross frequency (BCF), and linearity (LIN). Different lowercase letters in the same column of data indicate significant differences (p < 0.05), and the same lowercase letters indicate insignificant differences (p > 0.05).
