no response ("dumb sole")

Explanation:
"dumb sole" means, that there is no response or "left Babinski negative".

Here is an excerpt from the article in the reference:
According to our observation five different stages of plantar response
could be distinguished: (1) Absence of any response or " dumb sole ";
(2) extensor response from the whole sole; (3) extensor response from lateral and no response from medial part; (4) extensor response from lateral and flexor from medial part; (5) flexor from the whole sole
