Visceral sensitivity. A. Sample waveforms recorded from the external oblique muscles in a control rat (upper panel) and a rat with neonatal CI (lower panel) in response to CRD (80 mmHg). In each panel, the lower trace represents the raw waveform and the upper trace represents the rectified one. B. Bar graphs represent the average (+/- SEM) EMG intensity (AUC: area under the curve) recorded in response graded CRD (20, 40, 60 and 80 mmHg) in control rats (n = 12) and in adult rats with neonatal CI given at different time points. All data are compared to control. Significance (or lack thereof) is indicated by the value of p shown for each graph. p < 0.05/2 is significant.
