Acute ventricular dilation and ventricular injury in mice after SAH. (a) Representative T2-weighted MR images from each group on day 3 after SAH. (b) Evans ratio in each group (n = 12). (c) Ventricular volume in each group (n = 12). (d) Representative images of HE-stained brain tissue sections showing the increase in the size of the lateral ventricle (Black arrows show disordered cellular arrangement); scale bar = 1 mm. The values are presented as the means ± SDs. *: p < 0.05 versus the sham group; #: p < 0.05 versus the Single 60 group; one-way ANOVA followed by the least significant difference test. MRI: magnetic resonance imaging;.
