Behavior | CD | WD | p Value |
---|---|---|---|
ASR (vMax, mV) | 346.90 ± 66.0 | 267.60 ± 40.0 | n.s. |
PPI (%) | 67.98 ± 3.4 | 72.89 ± 5.0 | n.s. |
EPM-entries (frequency) | 5.17 ± 1.8 | 7.63 ± 1.8 | n.s. |
EPM-anxiety index (index from 0 to 1) | 0.47 ± 0.0 | 0.56 ± 0.1 | n.s. |
FST-high mobility (time duration, %) | 10.88 ± 1.6 | 12.34 ± 1.3 | n.s. |
Values are presented as the mean ± SEM. Baseline ASR, PPI of the ASR, and EPM and FST indices of anxiety were evaluated at P58 (4 weeks after WD consumption started and 4 weeks before traumatic stress). No significant differences were observed between diet groups (p > 0.05, n = 8–23 rats per group/behavioral outcome). n.s., Not significant.
