From: Interrelations between blood-brain barrier permeability and matrix metalloproteinases are differently affected by tissue plasminogen activator and hyperoxia in a rat model of embolic stroke

Figure 1

Time point-corrected partial correlation coefficients between the extra-/intravasal FITC-albumin ratio as surrogate for blood-brain barrier permeability in ischemia-affected brain regions and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 (A) as well as MMP-9 (B) serum levels depending on treatment. Underlying degrees of freedom (df): In both (A) and (B) for controls n = 13, for NBO n = 13, for HBO n = 12, for tPA n = 11, and for tPA+HBO n = 13. Coefficient significance level: *: P < 0.05.
