Table 1.
Characteristics of included participants.
Fig 1.
Motor recovery and functional improvement after SCI.
Boxplots show (A) Lower Extremity Motor Score (LEMS), (B) Upper Extremity Motor Score (UEMS) and (C) Spinal Cord Independence Measure (SCIM) of the MDRO-positive patients compared with matched MDRO-negative patients at the early, intermediate and late stage. (D) Difference of the total SCIM score between late and early stage. Dots represent outlier (>1.5 times standard error), asterisks extreme outlier (> 2 x 1.5 times standard error).
Table 2.
Assessment interval related to SCI onset.
Fig 2.
Functional outcome determined by SCIM assessment within the first year after injury.
Changes of sub-SCIM items (A) self-care, (B) respiration & sphincter management and (C) mobility at the early, intermediate and late stage. Dots represent outlier (>1.5 times standard error); Asterisks represent extreme outlier (>2 x 1.5 times standard error).
