Motor function score of the hindlimbs in a rat model of intervertebral disc extrusion.

(A) The sham surgical procedure did not impact Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan locomotor rating scale scores in rats in the control group. (B) Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan locomotor rating scale scores were decreased in a rat model of intervertebral disc extrusion. The maximum possible Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan score was 21 points. A high score indicates good motor function. Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM. Statistical significance between groups was evaluated using the least significant range test. **P < 0.01, vs. before operation.
