The results of Spearman analysis in the isoflurane (
), halothane (
), and combined (■) group. The “matrix” contains the parameters of the cerebral blood flow (intra-ischemic flow, reperfusion), the flow transients (total number, the mean of amplitudes) and the outcome (striatal and cortical infarct volume, edema).
