Quantifying the Behavioural Relevance of Hippocampal Neurogenesis
Figure 2
Study specific and combined estimates from the causal mediation analysis.
The effect of neurogenesis was smaller than the effect of other mechanisms in all studies. The overall effect of neurogenesis was small, non-significant (p = 0.128), and unlikely to account for a large proportion of the observed behavioural effects (upper 95% CI = 0.34). PMID = PubMed ID; DA = Dark agouti; SD = Sprague-Dawley; MWM = Morris water maze; OF = open field; FST = forced swim test; B/W = black/white discrimination task. Error bars are 95% credible intervals.
