Correlations between SP or CGRP expression and preoperative VAS scores. There were significant positive correlations between SP (a) and CGRP (b) expression and preoperative VAS scores (SP: p < 0.05, r = 0.61, CGRP: p < 0.05, r = 0.39). VAS, visual analog scale; SP, substance P; CGRP, calcitonin gene-related peptide. The score on the x-axis shows the staining score, which was calculated by dividing the pixels of the immunopositive area with the pixels of the total area
