FIGURE 1.
Adult CRD precipitated the visceral hypersensitivity in rats experiencing neonatal CRD. (A) Rats undergoing neonatal CRDs on postnatal days 8, 10, and 12, and adult CRD in week 8. The behavioral testing was conducted in weeks 8–10. (B) Pain threshold was measured immediately after adult CRD (n = 6 rats each, F3,20 = 25.83, p < 0.001). (C) Pain threshold was measured 2 h after adult CRD (n = 6 rats each, F3,20 = 16.34, p < 0.001). Significance was assessed by ordinary one-way ANOVA with post hoc comparisons between groups. The data are expressed as the mean ± SEM. **p < 0.01.
