A Spearman correlation analysis on the variable of BrdU/lectin and behavioral performance in open field and rotarod tests on different days was performed. Behavioral performance in both tests at day 3 positively correlated with the number of BrdU⁺ and lectin⁺ vessels in the ischemic brain of females at day 30. BrdU, bromodeoxyuridine; ρ, correlation coefficient. *P < 0.05.
