Figure 6.

The histological morphological alterations of the neural network in the thoracic spinal cord after chronic compression, as detected using Golgi staining. (A) Representative images of the neural network randomly selected from longitudinal sections (30 μm) of the spinal cord in the control group and after 1 and 6 months of chronic thoracic spinal cord compression. Scale bar= 50 μm. (B) Quantification of morphological alterations of the neuronal network in normal samples and after 1 and 6 months of chronic thoracic spinal cord compression. A one-way analysis of variance followed by the Dunn post hoc test was performed. #p?<?0.05, significant difference between the control group and 1-month postcompression. ##p?<?0.01, significant difference between the control group and 6 months postcompression.
