Figure 3. Inosine does not affect lesion size.

A. Depth of lesions for all animals in Studies 1 and 2 (bars show group means; dashed lines show exclusion limits). B. lesion depth after excluding rats in which the lesion was either ≤ 50% or > 85% the depth of the spinal cord. C. Area of lesions (percentage of tissue lost within an 8 mm segment of spinal cord centered at the lesion epicenter). Inosine and saline-treated groups did not differ from each other in lesion depth or area (One-way ANOVA, Dunnet a priori test).
