Figure 4From: Effects of minimally invasive procedures for evacuation of intracerebral hematoma in early stages on MMP-9 and BBB permeability in rabbits ∆Ct values changes of MMP-9 mRNA among different groups. The ∆Ct values of perihematomal MMP-9 mRNA in different MI subgroups increased significantly as compared with the MC group. A significant difference of the MMP-9 mRNA was also observed among subgroups. These results suggested that the MI procedures for hematoma evacuation could decrease the quantity of MMP-9 mRNA. Performing the MI procedures in early stages after ICH displayed a favorable outcome.Back to article page
