Figure 2. Relationship between the degree of initial neurological dysfunction and mortality of mice after ICH.

Surviving mice (n = 78) and dead mice (n = 35) as of 4 weeks after induction of ICH were compared by behavioral parameters assessed at 6 h after ICH; hindlimb fault rate (A), performance score (B) and walking distance (C) in the beam-walking test, and performance score in the modified limb-placing test (D). ***P<0.001 versus dead group.
