“Worsening and Alleviation of Blood Stasis Syndrome Characteristics in a Rat Model of Steroid-Induced Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head at 12 Weeks”

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38114220

The study found that in a rat model of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head, blood stasis syndrome characteristics such as hyperalgesia, tongue color darkening, gait abnormalities, and platelet, vascular, and coagulation dysfunctions worsened around 12 weeks after modeling and then alleviated, with notable differences at this time point.
