Modified neurological severity score (mNSS) serves as a criterion for neurological assessment to movement, reflex, sensation, and balance in rodents (Yao et al., 2009; Piao et al., 2018), and was here used to assess the extention of neurological injury of neonatal mice at 6 h after HI. The score ranged from 0 to 18, where 1–6 indicated mild injury, 7–12 represented moderate injury, and 13–18 indicated severe injury. Assessor were blinded to the experimental treatments.
