The modified garcia score test was performed as previously described (Liu et al., 2019). Five tests were performed: vibrissae touch, body proprioception, lateral turning, limb symmetry and forelimb walking. Each test was scored by a 3 points system according to the following criteria: 0, no deficits; 1, mild deficits; 2, moderate deficits; 3, severe deficits. The total score of the modified Garcia Score are 15 points, which ranges from 0 (serious injury) to 15 (no injury).
