Table 1.
Acute injury severity measures, FPI resulted in worsened acute injury severity outcomes as indicated by increased apnea, hind-limb withdrawal, and self-righting reflex times compared to the sham-injured group regardless of the assigned treatment. *=FPI significantly greater than sham-injured group, p<0.001. Values are mean±SEM.

| Unconciousness | 0 | 0 | 320±30* | 335±25* |
