Figure 3: Single pellet reaching total component scores: 1 wk after SCI, all rats displayed deficits in pellet retrieval. By 8 wks post injury, there was no significant recovery of this measure in any group: SCI controls (n=11), NRP/GRP alone (n=14), Task Practice (n=8), or Task Practice + NRP/GRP (n=8), although a main effect of group was found indicating that the SCI controls were significantly worse than the three treatment groups.
