Figure 1

Schematic diagram of the in vitro models for coughing experiments indicating the location of the stenosis, syrinx, and flow input. Ports for pressure sensors were sited at 4 cm intervals in the subarachnoid space and in the syrinx. The simulated cough pressure pulse was inserted at the input (caudal end). SSE = stenosis and syrinx model, SSED = stenosis and syrinx model with distensible spinal column, SRE = stenosis removed model, and SAE = stenosis alone model.
