Table 2.

Biomechanical parameters of rabbits' ICAs in the four groups.

Trait	CRM-Model group	Non-CRM-Model group	CRM-Normal group	Non-CRM-Normal group
Physiological elastic modulus (MPa)^abc	9.68 ± 4.55^df	5.34 ± 2.51^g	2.23 ± 1.11	2.05 ± 1.02
Max elastic modulus (MPa)^b	16.51 ± 10.38^f	12.05 ± 8.06	9.16 ± 4.01	8.04 ± 1.97
Max strain (%)^b	65.54 ± 10.15^f	71.43 ± 16.53^g	96.52 ± 12.07	100.14 ± 20.09
Max stress (MPa)	4.43 ± 1.87	4.76 ± 2.81	5.77 ± 1.84	5.19 ± 1.94

Two-way ANOVA results:

a denotes significant P < 0.05 CRM × Model interaction.

b denotes P < 0.05 significance of model versus normal controls (model effects).

c denotes P < 0.05 significance of CRM versus Non-CRM (treatment effects).

d denotes P < 0.05 significance of comparisons for CRM versus Non-CRM within model group.

f denotes P < 0.05 significance of comparisons of model group versus normal group treated with CRM.

g denotes P < 0.05 significance of comparisons of model group versus normal group treated without CRM.
