Fig. 3. Nocifensive Responses to Noxious 44°C Hotplate Stimulus in Week 6.
A. Increased rearing events (10 min) in rats with AHF induced pancreatitis occurred on the 38°C and B. the 44°C hotplate. C. The first response hindpaw licking latency to the 44°C heat was significantly shorter in rats with AHF induced pancreatitis. D. The total number of hindpaw licking/guarding events per 10 min was dramatically increased in rats with AHF pancreatitis (* p<0.05, two-tailed t-test).
