Fig. 6From: Acute subdural haematoma exacerbates cerebral blood flow disorder and promotes the development of intraoperative brain bulge in patients with severe traumatic brain injuryComparison of brain bulge volume and brain water content among rats of various groups. a After the addition of 400 µL SDH, the brain tissue clearly bulged beyond the bone window and was accompanied by pia mater damage and haemorrhage. b The brain bulge volume of the DBI + SDH400 group was significantly larger than that of the other groups. c Comparison of brain water content revealed that the brain tissue on the SDH-compressed side had a significant increase in brain water content, and the DBI + SDH400 group also had a significant increase in brain water content on the non-compressed contralateral side. n = 5 in the sham group and 10 per group in the rest. *P < 0.05, #P < 0.01.
