Maternal sleep deprivation increased anxiety-like behavior in the novelty-suppressed feeding task. a The offspring of ESD (n = 12), MSD (n = 12) and LSD (n = 12) showed significantly longer latency to feeding than control (n = 12) during the test. b The offspring of ESD, MSD and LSD consumed less food than control during the test. c No differences were observed in total food consumption including during test and in home cage among these groups. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 vs. control; ns = no significant difference
