Multivariate regression model: unstandardized regression coefficients, confidence intervals (CI) and level of significance for the analysis of the time-dependent association between VSN severity and task (FM-arm and MI-arm), corrected for type of treatment, outcome scores at baseline, severity of stroke, and sensory deficits, during the first year post-stroke.
