[Table/Fig-1]:
Effect of drug alprazolam on restrained stress induced alteration of food intake in male albino rats.
Group & Treatment | Initial Food intake (g/day) |
Final Food intake (g/day) |
---|---|---|
Group I (Untreated control) |
17.38 ± 0.45a | 18.50± 0.39a |
Group II (Stress induced) |
17.17 ± 0.46a | 15.46 ± 0.40b |
Group III (Stress+ Withdrawal) |
16.92 ± 0.56a | 18.03 ± 0.52a |
Group IV (Stress + alprazolam, 5mg/kg bwt) |
18.29 ± 0.66a | 19.32 ± 0.57a |
Each value is Mean ± SD of six observations in each group. In each column, values with different superscripts (a, b) were significantly different from each other (p<0.05). Post-hoc t-test analysis was used to test for differences among the means when ANOVA indicated a significant p<0.05.
