- Monkey Mk-PM exhibited a brain with PMG whereas the other 10 monkeys had a brain with normal appearance.
- Under species, "mul." is for macaca mulatta whereas "fasc." is for macaca fascicularis.
- Under ICMS (intracortical microstimulation), "Yes" refers to the four monkeys subjected to ICMS sessions in M1.
- BIM + RT: Bimanual reach and grasp task study: assessment of motor performance in the present reach and grasp drawer task (see additional file 1 Fig. S1) with measures of RT's.
- RT: Assessment of RT in a former version of the reach and grasp drawer task[11];
- SF: Measurement of the Sulcus frequency in the cortex.
- RN: Red Nucleus investigation study [17]; Cortex: Cortical anatomical investigation study [20];
- SCI: Spinal cord injury study: monkeys used as control intact monkeys in previous studies on spinal cord injury, used here for comparison.
