Abnormal topography and altered acquisition of conditioned eyeblink responses in a rodent model of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

abstract：:Adult male rats consumed 50-150% more 0.5 M NaCl solution than females did during a 7-hr drinking test when robust salt appetite was elicited by dietary sodium deprivation for 8 days, daily injections of deoxycorticosterone, or adrenalectomy followed by 2 days of sodium deprivation. In contrast, male rats drank much l...
