Figure 2.

Effect of subdiaphragmatic vagotomy on the intake of three different solutions in rats.

The intake of each solution during a 1-hour period in rats undergoing subdiaphragmatic vagotomy and sham operation is shown. The intake of each solution was measured daily, and this measurement continued for 7 days. The values in the figure represent the average daily intake during this 1-hour period, and are expressed as mean ± SEM of six animals from each group. ^aP < 0.01, vs. sucrose and distilled water groups using one-way analysis of variance followed by Student’s t-test.
