From: Low-frequency electrical stimulation of bilateral hind legs by belt electrodes is effective for preventing denervation-induced atrophies in multiple skeletal muscle groups in rats

Figure 3

Muscle fiber cross-sectional area (CSA) of TA (a) and GAS (b) after belt electrode chronic stimulation. Mean ± SD. One-way ANOVA test was used to evaluate changes in the muscle fiber CSA of the lower limb muscles 24 h after chronic stimulation with belt electrodes. CONT, unstimulated control group; DEN, denervation muscle atrophy induced by DEN + ES, denervation muscle atrophy induced + electrical stimulation by belt electrode group; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001.
