This enhanced blood supply delivers oxygen, nutrients, and repair cells to damaged tissues, accelerating healing across diverse tissue types including muscle, tendon, bone, and gastrointestinal mucosa.

Particular lesions presentation in the corresponding brain areas (i.e., cerebral and cerebellar cortex) likely reflect particular damaging effects (i.e., cerebellar cortex appears to be the most affected in the early course (Figure 9), cerebral cortex later less affected, microglial recruitment presented later)
