- Four brain regions (basal, frontal and convexity cortex and caudoputamen) were examined. A significant hemispheric and regional difference in neutrophil infiltration was found (ANOVA). Moreover no interaction between the hemispheres and brain regions was present, indicating global nature of ischemic brain injury after SAH. Similar hemispheric and regional differences in neutrophil count were present at 3, 6 and 24 hours after SAH (data not shown; see text for explanation). Data are mean ± sem, N = 5 animals.
