Fig 1.
Vibration perception thresholds for index finger measured in females of two age groups.
Y-axis shows mean vibration perception threshold (VPT) values in decibels (dB: relative 10−6 m/s2), and 95% confidence intervals, for the seven different frequencies (Hz) presented in the X axis. Subjects were females between 18 and 29 years (n = 58), as well as females over 70 years (n = 30).

Vibration perception thresholds for fifth metatarsal head measured in males and females over 70 years.
Y-axis shows mean vibration perception threshold (VPT) values in decibels (dB; relative 10−6 m/s2), and 95% confidence intervals, for the seven different frequencies (Hz) presented in the X axis. Subjects were males and females, all over 70 years (n = 29 in each group).
