Figure 1.
The HFS diet altered recovery of sensorimotor performance in the injured animals compared to the standard diet. The graph shows plotted mean (+S.E.M.) latencies to remove the tactile stimuli applied to the forelimbs. The HFS diet did delay the recovery of function on the first two test days; however, over the entire length of the testing period it did not significantly impair recovery compared to the standard diet. The HFS diet also significantly impaired performance in the sham animals compared to the standard diet.
