Fig. 4From: Cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor celecoxib attenuates joint contracture following immobilization in rat kneesHistograms showing morphological changes in the semitendinosus muscles. a Muscle length ratio (experimental side (Rt)/contralateral side (Lt)). b Sarcomere number ratio (experimental side (Rt)/contralateral side (Lt)). Decrease in both muscle length ratio and sarcomere number ratio were partially prevented by celecoxib treatment. *P < 0.05 vs. control group; # P < 0.05 vs. Im group.
