Figure 3 Cognitive function before and after VSL#3 or fecal microbiota transplantation treatment. A: FMT treatment increases rat total swim distance as revealed by the Morris water maze; B: Rats that received FMT showed improved swim speed; C: The number of line crossings in the FMT group was significantly increased relative to that of the model group.
