Mean activation responses to transient hypertension (no stimulation) during fMRI scans. Numbers of voxels significantly correlating to the change in BP time course have been grouped into different ranges of BP change for animals (n=4 to 8) and are presented as a percentage of the voxels analyzed in each region of interest (ROI) (top panel, A). Mean peak signal intensity changes (%) are also presented (bottom panel, B). Abbreviations: R—Right, L—Left, Cortex—sensory–motor cortex, Hemi—rest of hemisphere. Data are mean
s.d. *
P<0.05, **
P<0.001, different from baseline (no hypertension); †
P<0.05, ††
P<0.008, different from corresponding sham region (infarct and peri-infarct versus sham R cortex).
