Figure 2
CBF of MCAO rats receiving GFR and RFR by Laser Doppler Flowmetry (LDF). (A) Representative LDF of CBF reperfusion in MCAO rats with GFR mode. (B) Representative LDF of CBF reperfusion in MCAO rats with RFR mode. (C) Comparison of relative alternations in CBF reperfusion undergoing GFR and RFR intervention. The relative CBF data were calibrated by the percentage of pre-occlusion values of CBF and represented as means% ± SD%. The symbol $ means the statistical significance of relative CBF after occlusion versus baseline, # means statistical significance of CBF increment in three-step reperfusion of GFR. *p < 0.05 or **p < 0.01 means statistical significance of relative CBF after reperfusion versus occlusion in each model. The dotted lines mean CBF baseline of rat MCA in GFR and RFR model.
