The modified Neurological Severity Score (mNSS) test was used to evaluate the neurological function of experimental rats. The test was performed in all rats before injury and at 1, 7 and 14 days after TBI. The mNSS could reflect the motor, sensory and reflex functional. Neurological function was graded on a scale of 0‐18. The higher the score, the more severe the injury is. The mNSS test was performed by an investigator who was blinded to the experiment.
