Fig 4. Correlations among MEPdia amplitude, extent of injury, and contralateral diaphragm activity at 7d P.I.

Fig 4

A. Correlation of the extent of injury (represented as the ventral spared white matter) with MEPdia amplitude on the injured (black dots, R2:0.16, p = 0.034) and spared (white dots, R2:0.364, p = 0.149) side. Note the higher MEPdia recording with bigger spared white matter. B. Correlation between contralateral diaphragm amplitude and MEPdia amplitude on injured (black dots, R2:0.559, p = 0.005)/spared (white dots, R2:0.495, p = 0.014)sides. Note higher diaphragm EMG with lower MEPdia amplitude.
