Neurological deficit grade observed 72 h after SAH in rabbits
| Group | Neurological
deficit grade*
|
|||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | |
| Control | 8 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Control plus placebo | 8 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Control plus r-Hu-EPO | 8 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| SAH | 0 | 0 | 4 | 4 |
| SAH plus placebo | 0 | 0 | 6 | 2 |
| SAH plus r-Hu-EPO** | 5 | 3 | 0 | 0 |

Neurological deficit grades are follows: 1 = no deficit; 2 = minimal or suspected deficit; 3 = mild deficit without abnormal movements; 4 = severe deficits with abnormal movements.
**
P < 0.05 compared with SAH and SAH plus placebo group.
