Group and sample size

Intervention

Sham (N = 10)

The rats underwent profound anesthesia, after which an incision was made on the skin covering their skull, and the incision was subsequently sutured.

TBI (N = 10)

Induction of TBI

TBI + PBS (N = 10)

Induction of TBI and injection of PBS as a vehicle for stem cells and scaffold

TBI + Nano-SDF (N = 10)

Induction of TBI and injection of Nano-SDF

TBI + NSCs (N = 10)

Induction of TBI and transplantation of 5 × 105 NSCs

TBI + Nano-SDF + NSCs (N = 10)

Induction of TBI, Nano-SDF injection, and transplantation of 5 × 105 NSCs.
