Fig 1. In situ torque depression was more marked in DEN than in DEX rats.
Representative original records of 100 Hz tetanic torque in plantarflexor muscles from control (CNT), denervation (DEN), and dexamethasone (DEX) rats with or without neuromuscular electrical stimulation (ES) training (A). Absolute torque at 100 Hz stimulation frequencies (B). Bars show the mean and SEM results from 6–9 muscles per group. Statistical significance was set at P<0.05: main effect of *treatment (i.e., DEN and DEX) and #ES; †interaction of treatment and ES; difference versus aCNT, bDEN, cCNT+ES, and dDEN+ES.
