  1. The numbers on the left of each box resemble the correlation coefficient, the numbers on the left (in brackets) the p-value.There was no correlation of the BWC with the course of ICP- and CPP-values in any group. The BWC showed a significant inverse correlation to the AUC of both the ipsi- and contralateral LCBF-course in animals sacrificed after 180 and 360 minutes.
