Kinematic data analysis. (A) Kinematics of the left hindlimb were analyzed from several step cycles of the animal walking on the treadmill with reflective markers placed on the iliac crest, hip, knee and ankle joints of the left hindlimb. Kinematic data analysis was performed using the reflective markers to generate the left hindlimb segments and joint angles. (B) Representation of the left hindlimb segments and joint angles. Hip angle (1), knee angle (2) and ankle angle (3).
