  1. The patients are numbered chronologically according to the date of inclusion in the study. The stimulation intensity corresponds to the average across 20 training sessions for the NWR-FET group. The mean training time corresponds to the average amount of minutes effectively used for training, excluding pauses, during the 20 training sessions. CVA: cerebrovascular accident.
