Distance travelled, rearing and digging were lower in HFD-P compared to HFD-C, trending towards significance for digging at 12 weeks (−54.1%, p = 0.0728).
Distance travelled, rearing and digging were lower in HFD-P compared to HFD-C, trending towards significance for digging at 12 weeks (−54.1%, p = 0.0728).
In the open field test (OFT, Figure 1 Biii), no significant between-group differences were observed in total distance travelled, time in the arena centre nor the frequency of rearing, digging or grooming over the course of the study (although Chow-P results were universally higher than Chow-C after 24 weeks supplementation with a trend toward significance for digging: 84.8%, p = 0.0847).
