Anatomic Changes in the Macroscopic Morphology and Microarchitecture of Denervated Long Bone Tissue after Spinal Cord Injury in Rats

Figure 5

Macroscopic changes in the tibia at 33 and 63 days after spinal cord injury (SCI). SCI rats showed deficits at increasing the bone morphometric measures to varying levels, whereas reloading through passive standing (PS) reversed this loss and electrical stimulation (ES) also showed the same tendency. Asterisks ( ) and hash ( ) signs indicate a significant difference ( ).
