a, Stacked column graph demonstrating the number of animals with recovered ipsilateral (left) hemidiaphragmatic electromyography (EMG) activity immediately after left C2 hemisection (n = 4 mice per group). Length of compression in the ntSCI animals was related to the proportion of animals with ipsilateral inspiratory activity after C2 hemisection (P = 0.0034, chi-square test for trend). b, Representative EMG recordings from the left hemidiaphragm immediately after left C2 hemisection in sham as well as in 2-, 4- and 8-week ntSCI mice.
