From: Degraded inferior colliculus responses to complex sounds in prenatally exposed VPA rats
The IC response strength to speech sounds is altered over multiple sound intensities in VPA-exposed rats compared to saline-exposed rats. A Box and whisker plots depicting the average group response strength evoked by the sound ‘dad’ presented at 75, 60, and 45 dB. The driven rate was quantified using the 400 ms response to the sounds. The black line indicates the median, and the error bars indicate the 95% confidence interval. The asterisk indicates experimental groups that are statistically significant from each other using a Mann–Whitney U test. All asterisks are represented in APA style: **p < 0.005, *p < 0.05. B Box and whisker plots depicting the average group response strength evoked by the sound ‘shad’ presented at 75, 60, and 45 dB
