Size, neuron diameter; Cm, cell capacitance; Rin, input resistance; AP, action potential; Threshold, AP threshold; Amplitude, AP amplitude; Overshoot, AP overshoot; Duration, AP duration. Neurons recorded in each group: n = 11/51 (numbers of rats/neurons) in sham; n = 6/57 for BO day 1 (1 d); n = 5/26 for BO day 3 (3 d); n = 5/31 for BO day 7 (7 d). Data is expressed as mean ± SEM.
