Figure 3

From: Hypolocomotion, asymmetrically directed behaviors (licking, lifting, flinching, and shaking) and dynamic weight bearing (gait) changes are not measures of neuropathic pain in mice

Figure 3

No evidence for asymmetrically directed behaviors in CCI mice. Symbols represent mean ± S.E.M. (A) directed grooming behavior (duration in s), (B) isolated licking behavior (duration in s), (C) hind paw lifting behavior (counts), (D) shaking/flinching behavior (counts), and (E) exaggerated turning behavior (counts) in 60 min of mice given CCI surgeries (red), sham surgeries (blue), or unoperated (green), and tested 1, 7, 14 and 28 days post-operatively. Closed symbols and solid lines (see key in bottom right) refer to the ipsilateral (Ipsi) side; open symbols and dashed lines refer to the contralateral (Contra) side. Definitions of all behaviors can be found in the main text; example video clips are available as Additional files 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Full videos are available upon request.
