Cerebral blood flow response versus relative mean arterial pressure change. Cerebral blood flow response (ΔrCBF) for the transition from the first to the second supine position versus relative mean arterial pressure change (ΔMAP) in the ipsilesional hemisphere (left), and in the contralesional hemisphere (right) for the measurements performed on AIS in the first 48 h after stroke, ICA stenosis patients and controls. For more details about the statistical results, see the text. Linear model fit and 95% confidence intervals (in grey) are plotted. (*) indicates a statistically significant linear model. Ipsi. = ipsilesional; contra. = contralesional
