FIG. 5.
Neurohistological outcome of CA/CPR at 3 and 7 days post-arrest. Animals subjected to CA/CPR with extracranial hypothermia suffered significantly less neuronal death than those subjected to whole-body normothermic arrest as measured at 3 days post-CA/CPR. This effect was no longer significant at 7 days post-CA/CPR (*p=0.04, mean±SEM, n=15 for day 3 results, left. n=11/g for day 7, p>0.05).
