Fig. 2From: Intra-carotid arterial transfusion of circulatory-derived autologous endothelial progenitor cells in rodent after ischemic stroke—evaluating the impact of therapeutic time points on prognostic outcomesTime courses of corner test for assessment of neurological function at different time points after acute IS. a Graphical illustration of time points of corner test for determining the neurological function prior to and after acute IS among the seven groups. b At day 0, P > 0.5. c At day 3, ***P < 0.001 vs. SC. d At day 7, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 vs. IS. e At day 14, * < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 vs. IS. f At day 28, *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001 vs. IS. g At day 60, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. All statistical analyses were performed by one-way ANOVA, followed by Bonferroni multiple-comparison post hoc test (n = 10 for each group). SC = sham-operated control; IS = ischemic stroke (IS); EPC3h = EPC administration from LCCA at 3 h after acute IS; EPC3d = EPC administration from LCCA at day 3 after acute IS; EPC7d = EPC administration from LCCA at day 7 after acute IS; EPC14d = EPC administration from LCCA at day 14 after acute IS; EPC28d = EPC administration from LCCA at day 28 after acute ISBack to article page
