Effect of GnRH and/or GH treatments on locomotor activity of the hindlimbs after SCI graded on BBB scale. (A) Data points represent mean ± SEM of 10 animals per group. Sham group (red), SCI group (blue), GnRH group (green), GH group (pink), GnRH + GH group (purple). BBB values in a range from 0 (lowest) and 21  (maximal). (B) Graphical representation of gait kinematics at 0 and 6 weeks post-SCI. (C) Minimal ankle angle measured at week 4 post injury; units in degrees. One-way Brown-Forsythe and Welch ANOVA with Fisher´s LSD post-hoc test recognized significant differences. A p-value under 0.05 indicated statistical significance and is represented with asterisks as follow: #,* P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01 and **** P < 0.0001.
