In the Irwing test, differences were observed in the evaluated items compared to the control group (injection with saline solution) (n = 2). The arrow ↑ indicated an increase in the effect and ↓ a decrease. The intensity of the effect was evaluated by the number of arrows present (for example: ↓: mild intensity; ↓↓: moderate intensity; ↓↓↓: high intensity). The colors represent the number of individuals in each group that exhibited the behavior; pink (none), deep pink (one), red (two), and deep red (three)
