Infarct size is smaller in diabetic rats after permanent MCAO. A: Summary of cerebral infarct size from TTC-stained brain sections of control and diabetic rats. Infarct size was calculated as percentage of contralateral hemisphere (n = 13 for control and 9 for diabetes). *P = 0.001. B: Edema formation was assessed as the volume difference between ischemic and nonischemic hemispheres and normalized to infarct volume. *P < 0.05. There was a small but significant difference in Bederson score (C) but not in EBST (D) between the groups. *P < 0.05. D: □, before; ■, after. (A high-quality color digital representation of this figure is available in the online issue.)
