Photomicrograph of brain tissue from groups; (G1): Reveal standard arrangement and typically oriented neurons within the gray matter (GM), evident by organized layout of pyramidal cell layer (PC). The section shows non-significant pycnotic cells (PN) with capillary engorgement (CE) in the area of cerebral cortex. (G2): Elucidate the presence of light eosinophilic edema (ED) within the cerebral cortex mixed with scattered inflammatory cells (inflammatory exudates) (IF), together with many areas of hemorrhage (HR). Presence of pyknotic cells (yellow arrows) along with shrunk neurons (SN). (G3): Display the presence of mild capillary engorgement and microthrombi (yellow arrows) together with vascular congestion (VC), with the incidence of some vacuolar degeneration (VD). The section also expresses some pyknotic cells (PC) together with some shrunk neurons (SN). (G4): Show the extensive distribution of pyknotic cells (yellow arrows), together with few degenerative cells (DC). The section reveals a mild area of perivascular edema mixed with inflammatory cells (PV), in addition to the area of slight microthrombi (red arrows). (G5): Reveal mildly expressed vascular congestion (VC), perivascular edema (PE), and some microthrombi (yellow arrows). With the presence of some pycnotic glial cells (PN) together with some shrunk neurons, the section still shows many intact neurons (white arrow). (G6): Show many areas of vascular congestion and engorgement (yellow arrows), attended with perivascular edema (PE). Moreover, the section reveals the incidence of many pycnotic (PC), degenerative (DC) and shrank neuroglial cells (SN). H&E. Scale bar: 4 mm.
