MPT in cohort #1. The MPT was defined as the geometric mean of pairs of fibers – the first fiber in a series reported as painful (suprathreshold) and the preceding fiber not reported as painful (infrathreshold). The geometric mean ± geometric SD is indicated in red. In two patients, testing continued such that two suprathresholds and two infrathresholds were obtained (Supplementary Fig. B). The black dotted line indicates the force corresponding to the maximum diameter fiber 6.65 and the red and blue dotted lines, the minimum and maximum measured MPTs
