This comparison does not assign a generated winner or score.

  • Controlled Cortical Impact (CCI)
  • 50–68% at 7 days (10 mcg/kg IP)
  • Tight junction protein preservation within 6 hours
  • Morris water maze latency improved 40–55% vs controls at 14 days
  • Most commonly used. Allows precise injury severity control and reproducible anatomical outcomes
  • Fluid Percussion Injury (FPI)
  • 38–52% at 14 days (10 mcg/kg IP)
  • BBB permeability reduced by 45% at 24h post-injury
  • Rotarod performance 35% improvement at 7 days
  • Mimics diffuse injury patterns but higher mortality rates limit sample sizes
  • Weight-Drop Impact
  • 28–41% at 7 days (5 mcg/kg IP)
  • Evans blue extravasation reduced 32% at 48h
  • Neurological severity score improved in 60% of treated subjects
  • Less precise injury control but closer to closed-head human TBI mechanism
  • Blast Injury Model
  • 18–30% reduction in cortical damage markers
  • Reduced inflammatory cytokine levels (IL-1β, TNF-α) at 72h
  • Beam walk performance 22% improved vs sham at 14 days
  • Relevant for military/blast TBI but mechanism differs from blunt force trauma
