Table 1. SSEP and dorsal funiculi data.

Dorsal funiculus determined to be present or absent based on luxol-fast blue stained cross-section within 100 um of the injury epicenter. SSEP results determined by three blinded assessors. An association between presence of SSEP and integrity of the ipsilateral dorsal funiculus was detected (Fisher’s Exact, p < 0.001), relative risk for detecting an SSEP for when tissue was intact versus absent: 4.50 (95% confidence interval: 1.83 to 11.08)

SSEP Result Dorsal funiculus Total
Intact (R/L) Absent (R/L)
Present (R/L) 9 (1/8) 1 (1/0) 10 (2/8)
Absent (R/L) 5 (1/4) 15 (12/3) 20 (13/7)
Total 14 (2/12) 16 (13/3)
