Effects of Pretreatment with a Combination of Melatonin and Electroacupuncture in a Rat Model of Transient Focal Cerebral Ischemia

<table>Photomicrographs of HE-stained brain sections near bregma level 0 24 hours after right-sided transient MCAO (magnification: 400x). In the control group, neutrophil infiltration was mainly present in the infarcted cortex. Neutrophil infiltration in the ischemic cerebral cortex was suppressed by the MEA pretreatment group 24 hours after transient MCAO.</table>
