Nerve discharges distribution in interspike interval. (a) The added value of 1/ISI proportion when comparing drug versus base stage. (b) The added value of 1/ISI proportion when comparing twisting versus base stage. (c) The added value of 1/ISI proportion when comparing retaining versus base stage. (d) The added value of 1/ISI proportion when comparing recovery versus base stage. The following listed values were calculated in 1/ISI over 40 Hz. (a) , , and , the value-added of 1/ISI proportion when comparing drug mean versus base mean, (b) , , and , the value-added of 1/ISI proportion when comparing twisting mean versus base mean, (c) , , and , the value-added of 1/ISI proportion when comparing retaining mean versus base mean, and (d) , , and , the value-added of 1/ISI proportion when comparing recovery mean versus base mean (ACU versus Saline + ACU group, ACU versus DSCG + ACU group, and Saline + ACU versus DSCG + ACU group, independent sample -test).
