Fig. 6. More severe ischemia leads to longer-lasting neural deficits and neurovascular disassociation.
(A to F) Pearson’s correlation using acute values of CBF and LFP as predictors for LFP at week 6 after stroke [ρ = 0.41, P = 0.02 in (A); ρ = 0.64, P = 4.1 × 10−5 in (B)], for time-integrated neural deficits DLFP [ρ = −0.49, P = 0.004 in (C); ρ = −0.76, P = 2.3 × 10−7 in (D)], and for time-integrated neurovascular disassociation DCBF − DLFP [ρ = −0.33, P = 0.06 in (E); ρ = −0.71, P = 3.3 × 10−6 in (F)]. The Pearson’s correlation coefficient is larger and the P value is smaller when using LFP0 as the predictor than using CBF0 for all three variables.
