Post-Stroke Longitudinal Alterations of Inter-Hemispheric Correlation and Hemispheric Dominance in Mouse Pre-Motor Cortex
Fig 8
Mean values of and frequency of hemispheric dominance fHD.
A) Level of symmetry of the inter-hemispheric interaction evaluated through the values of . The first week does not present significant statistical differences. On the other hand, days 16 and 23 highlight significant statistical differences p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively (two-way repeated measures Anova). B) Frequency of hemispheric dominance fHD (expressed in percentage) at days 16 post surgery. The distributions are zoomed in the ranges 0 − 10% and 80 − 100% to magnify the variation of fHD. The frequency distributions of stroke and control mice are significantly different (p < 0.05 χ2-test). C) Same as B) but for 23 post surgery. Also in this case the frequency distributions are significantly different between stroke and control mice (p < 0.05 χ2-test). For the top panel the error bars represent the corresponding standard errors.
