Anxiety index and bouts through the center were computed using three-way mixed-effects models, while rotarod data using the mouse dowel (r = 1.5 cm) and rat dowel (r = 3.5 cm) was computed using three-way ANOVAs

  • For all multivariate analyses, we examined the following three factors: treatment (i.p. vehicle vs i.p. CGRP), VC (pre- vs post-OVAR), and biological sex (male vs female). F-values are listed with respect to degrees of freedom (DFn, DFd) and p-values are listed accordingly.
