Figure 2. Reflex development.

Figure 2.

Area under the curve (AUC) analysis for reflex development of negative geotaxis (A), cliff aversion (B), righting reflex (C), and total time across all three tests (D). Median (IQR) negative geotaxis was significantly slower to develop in the injured group compared to the control group. No difference was seen in the AUC for cliff aversion or righting reflex. However, total time AUC was significantly greater in the injured group compared to the control group. The pattern of the AUC results suggested a bimodal distribution of injury, with 6 of 18 animals scoring similarly to control animals, and 12 animals displaying delayed skill development suggestive of cerebral injury. * denotes p<0.05
