1 Effects of short duration static stretching on the denervated and reinnervated soleus muscle morphology in the rat1  Harutoshi Sakakima, PT, MS, Yoshihiro Yoshida, MD  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 84, Issue 9, Pages (September 2003) DOI: /S (03)

2 Fig 1 Cross sections of the sciatic nerve after freezing, stained with 0.5% toluidin blue in 0.5% borate at (A) 2 weeks after freezing and (B) 3 weeks after freezing. NOTE. The bar is 50μm. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  , DOI: ( /S (03) )

3 Fig 2 The ratio of type II fiber to total fiber number before and 1, 2, 3, and 4 weeks after nerve freezing. Values are mean ± SD. There were significant differences between before freezing or contralateral side and 2 groups in each week. ∗P<.05. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  , DOI: ( /S (03) )

4 Fig 3 Cross sections of the soleus muscle, stained with alkaline pretreated ATPase reaction for (A) normal control, (B) the stretching groups 3 weeks after freezing, and (C) nonstretching groups 3 weeks after freezing. NOTE. The bar is 50μm. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  , DOI: ( /S (03) )
