Figure 1.
Results of modified Neurological Severity Scores (mNSS) before and after TBI. Significant functional improvement was detected in rats treated with 2 different doses of simvastatin (i.e., 0.5 mg/kg and 1 mg/kg) compared with controls. The recovery was evident 7 days after TBI and persisted at all subsequent time points. There was no significant difference among the two treatment groups. * = p < 0.05 vs control
