*Time after contusion is 10 days for groups 2, 3, 4 and 14 days for 1, 6, and 7.
Post hoc analyses (Bonferroni):
aGroup 1 is significantly different than Groups 2, 3, 4 at all time points except for when it is not significantly different from group 4.
bGroup 2 is significantly different than Groups 1, 4, 5, 6 at all time points except for when it is not significantly different from group 4 but from group 3.
cGroup 3 is significantly different than Groups 1, 4, 5, 6 at all time points except for when it is not significantly different from group 4 but from group 3.
dGroup 4 is significantly different from all groups on times 21, 28, 35, 49; : significantly different from groups 1, 5, 6; : significantly different from groups 23; : all but 5 and 6.
eGroup 5 is significantly different from groups 2, 3, 4 on all time points except at and , where group 5 is significantly different only from groups 2 and 3.
fGroup 6 is significantly different from groups 2, 3, 4 on all time points except at and where group 6 is significantly different from groups 2 and 3 only.
