Changes in nerve fiber numbers distal to a nerve repair in the rat sciatic nerve model
Abstract
Changes in nerve fiber numbers distal to a nerve repair in the sciatic nerve of 48 rats were evaluated over a 1‐ to 24‐month period. The results of the morphometric evaluation in the sciatic nerve distal to the nerve repair demonstrated an increase in nerve fiber counts as early as 1 month following the nerve repair. The number of nerve fibers in the distal nerve was greatest at 3 months and did not return to normal levels until 24 months. The results of this study will influence the timing of experimental studies in which nerve fiber counts are critical for evaluation, and provides a better understanding of the clinical events occurring following nerve repair.

“Similar to previous studies (Jenq and Coggeshall, 1985; MacKinnon et al., 1991; Archibald et al., 1995), fiber counts within the conduits were significantly more numerous compared to controls.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
