Monosynaptic | Control | 13 (6%) | 12 (5%) | 203 (89%) |

- The χ2-test revealed a significant difference in the number of cells receiving polysynaptic inputs from Aδ and C fibers between control and bone cancer-bearing mice (P < 0.05). The proportion of cells receiving monosynaptic inputs was not different across the groups.
