Fig. 2.
Mean stride length (SL) of each limb in normal dogs was compared to spinal cord injury (SCI) affected dogs at day 3, 10 and 30 following decompressive surgery. Whiskers represent ± standard deviation. Asterisk denotes statistically significant differences from normal dogs (P<0.05). Mean SL was significantly lower in all limbs at all time points in SCI-affected dogs compared to normal dogs. A gradually increasing trend in mean SL is seen in all limbs of SCI-affected dogs with post-operative recovery.
