Figure 2. Survival rate of WT and nCOX-2 cKO mice during and after SE.
A. Mortality during SE was defined as deaths that occurred between the times of pilocarpine and pentobarbital/diazepam injections. Out of 62 WT mice, 25 died during SE, whereas a similar proportion (18 of 56) nCOX-2 cKO mice died during SE (Fischer’s exact test p = 0.45). B. Mortality after SE, defined as deaths that occurred during the seven days after termination of SE, was significantly different between the two genotypes (Fischer’s exact test p = 0.0125).
