There was a clear trend for rheobase to be lower in females, but this was not at the level of statistical significance ( t (209) = 1.963, p = 0.0510) i ; delay to the first action potential (AP) ( t (209) = 0.2872, p = 0.7743) j and threshold ( t (209) = 0.6176, p = 0.5375) k did not differ by sex during pre-adolescence (Fig. 3 f–h).
