Severe peripheral inflammation aggravated cerebral edema on days 1, 3, and 7 after ICH. A Coronal T2 magnetic resonance images. B Schematic image of different brain regions in ipsilateral hemisphere, including basal ganglia, cortex, cerebellum, hippocampus, and brainstem. C, D, E Statistical analysis of BWC in different brain regions at 1d, 3d, 7d after ICH. The data are expressed as the mean ± SD. ^# vs. the sham group, P < 0.05; ^a vs. the LPS group, P < 0.05; ^b vs. the LPS + sham group, P < 0.05; ^& vs. the ICH group, P < 0.05; ns: no significance
