Effects of gabapentin on preference index without the object and hypersensitivity after SNL surgery. a, b Normal and c, d SNL rats 2–3 weeks after surgery received an oral administration of vehicle or gabapentin (GBP, 100 mg/kg) 2 h prior to shuttle maze measurement without the object. Preference index values are presented as the percentage of counts that animals chose the short route over the total counts (a, c). Withdrawal thresholds in the hind paw ipsilateral to nerve injury were measured prior to the drug administration (baseline) and just after the shuttle maze measurement in normal and SNL rats (b, d). Data are presented as changes from the baseline
