Effects of EA on cognitive impairment in cerebral I/R injury rats. The learning and memory funtion of rats was determined using a Morris water maze test on days 3–7 following I/R injury. (A) Tracing images from the Morris water maze test. (B) Time taken for the rats to find the platform (within 90 sec). (C) Time taken in the third quadrant for the rats to find the platform (within 90 sec). (D) The number of times the rats passed through the area in which the platform was located on day 7 following I/R injury. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation from 15 individual rats in each group. *P<0.01 vs. sham group; #P<0.01 vs. MCAO group; ##P<0.05 vs. the MCAO group. EA, electroacupuncture; I/R, ischemia/reperfusion; MCAO, middle cerebral artery occlusion.
