Box-and-whisker plots of median stiffness from the three different cords standardized against the corresponding control. This standardization removes shifts in stiffness between experimental replicates caused by variation in the ECs before each trial. The median stiffness increased in the shear group using both methods of shear. * denotes statistical significance.
