Gait characteristics of SNL rats in circular phase. The touchdown phases of both hind-limbs were quantitatively assessed within one cycle as the time taken from when the right hind-limb lifted off and touched down again. The R value is the ratio of the right/left circular time. The R values were 1.0 ± 0.08 in the sham rats and 0.66 ± 0.20 at 1 weeks and 0.62 ± 0.15 at 4 weeks post-operation in the SNL rats. SNL model, n = 10; sham model, n = 10
