Figure 8 Nissl staining and lesion volumes of the sham group (Sham), middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) control group (Control), MCAO with treadmill rehabilitation group (Treadmill), MCAO with motorized running wheel rehabilitation group (MRW), and MCAO with dynamic exercise area running wheel rehabilitation group (DEARW). (A) Nissl staining of brain tissues at 28 days after middle cerebral artery occlusion. (B) Relative lesion volumes in each group. * p<0.05 compared with the sham group; @ p<0.05 compared with the control group; & p<0.05 compared with the MRW group.
