Temporal profiles of blood viscosity in SAO and non-SAO stroke. The baseline diastolic blood viscosity was higher in the SAO group than that in the non-SAO group a. The difference between the two groups was seen to decrease at the 1-week follow-up, and increase at the 5-week follow-up a. The systolic blood viscosity in the SAO group was higher than that in the non-SAO group at the 5-weeks follow-up b. *p < 0.05; DBV, diastolic blood viscosity; SBV, systolic blood viscosity; SAO, small artery occlusion
