Redistribution of strongly correlated hippocampal neuronal pairs in space in a response to acute stress. a Mean Euclidian distance for weakly correlated neurons (p = 0.9040, F(3,20) = 0.1869, One-way ANOVA test). b Mean radial distance for weakly correlated neurons (p = 0.2875, F(3,20) = 1.347, One-way ANOVA test). c Mean Euclidian distance for strongly correlated neurons (baseline (n = 15) vs stress (n = 3): p = 0.0190, F(3,20) = 4.178, One-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s post-hoc test). d Mean radial distance between strongly correlated neuronal pairs (baseline (n = 15) vs stress (n = 3): p = 0.0026; baseline (n = 15) vs 3 h (n = 3): p = 0.0479, F(3,20) = 6.936, One-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s post-hoc test). ns-non-significant; *: p < 0.05; **: p < 0.01.
