Measurements of mechanical sensibility.
Notes: Von Frey test shows decreased sensitivity to mechanical stimulation in the paws of CLP-operated rats as evidenced by a downward and a rightward shift in the paw withdrawal curve of CLP-operated rats compared to sham-operated (n=10/each group) ones. Inset shows the paw withdrawal threshold observed in 50% of animals of both experimental groups.
Abbreviation: CLP, cecal ligation and puncture.
