Effect of DMNS on behavior in adult and adolescent ADHD rats. A Schematic diagram of the specific experimental process. B Open field experiment in adolescent rats. Left: Heatmap of the trajectory of the rat in the open field box; Right: Histogram of data from the open field experiment. From left to right are the total distance, activity, and central area residence time/surrounding area residence time. C Novel object recognition experiment in adolescent rats. Left: Trajectory diagram of the rat in the experiment; Right: Distinction index of rats. D Y maze experiment in adolescent rats. Left: Heatmap of the trajectory of the rat in the Y maze; Right: Alternations of rats. E 5-CSRTT experiment with adult rats. Left: Simple schematic diagram of 5-CSRTT; Right: Caving accuracy of rats. F Open field experiment in adult rats. Left: Heatmap of the trajectory of the rat in the open field box; Right: Histogram of data from the open field experiment. From left to right are the total distance and central area residence time/surrounding area residence time. G Novel object recognition experiment in adulthood rats. Left: Trajectory diagram of the rat in the experiment; Right: Distinction index of rats. D Y maze experiment in adult rats. Left: Heatmap of the trajectory of the rat in the Y maze; Right: Alternations of rats. One-way ANOVA with Fisher’s LSD test was used as the statistical method. The data were presented as means ± SEM for each group of rats (n = 6); *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
