Fig. 4From: Bilateral hyperexcitability of thalamic VPL neurons following unilateral spinal injury in ratsComparison of neuronal activity of thalamic VPL LT neurons following T13 spinal hemisection. a Typical waveforms of LT neurons in thalamic VPL regions from both sham-operated (top) and hemisected (bottom) rats. Background (b) and afterdischarge (d) activity did not show significant differences in both sides of VPL regions compared to sham controls, respectively. c After hemisection, brush-evoked activity shows significant difference compared to sham controls whereas pressure- and pinch-evoked activity did not show significant differences, respectively. Values are graphed as means ± SE. *P < 0.05Back to article page
