Methylprednisolone treatment does not affect the number of peripheral white blood cells. Blood samples were longitudinally collected at − 1 week, 24 h, 2 and 5 weeks after decompression and assessed by flow cytometry. The number of granulocytes (a), monocytes (b), and T cells (c) was not affected by MP treatment compared with the saline group. Representative flow charts for each cell type at 2 weeks after decompression are shown with quantification. Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and are presented as mean ± SEM
