3. Fig 2
Development of sensible conduction velocity (a) and minimal F-wave latency (b) over time in the three experimental groups. After nerve block, conduction velocity tended to decline in all groups, but did not reach statistical significance when groups were pooled (P=0.15). Sciatic nerve motor block duration in late diabetic animals (c). After the nerve block, the minimal F-wave latency increased significantly, when the data of all three groups were pooled. Data are shown as mean and sd. anova with the post hoc Bonferroni test, paired samples T-test. *P<0.05; #P<0.01; ##P<0.001.
