text: observed 7809 6 153 neurons per DRG; this was not significantly 
  different to the number of neurons in the contralateral DRG 
  (7917 6 349), whereas cell number approximately halved by 
  8 weeks postinjury to 3963 6 410 neurons per DRG (Fig. 1C). 
  Separating analysis into intact vs axotomized afferents revealed 
  that only axotomized afferents were lost, with no difference 
  observed in numbers of intact afferents (Fig. 1D). Between 1 and 
  8 weeks after injury, we observed a 61.0 6 7.0% decrease in the 
  number of GFP1 neurons. This loss of injured afferents resulted 
  in a loss of neuron-containing (ie, excluding white matter regions) 
  DRG volume (Fig. 1E), but not neuron density (Fig. 1F). Cell loss 
  predominantly occurred between 1 and 2 weeks postinjury and 
  stabilized after this timepoint. Population distributions of the 
  cross-sectional area of nucleated, 
  tdTomato-expressing cell 
  profiles were not significantly different at 1 vs 8 weeks post- 
  SNItrans, in contrast to GFP-expressing/injured afferents, in which 
  a loss of a population of small afferents at 8 weeks postinjury was 
  observed (Fig. 1G).
