Effects of VPA treatment and acute Xe inhalation on the behavior of rats in open field test on pnd 21. Number of total rearings (a) and number of sections crossed within first 2 and last 2 min of observation (b) were measured within a 5-min observation. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 represent significant differences vs. Control group; ^#p < 0.05, ^###p < 0.001—significant differences within the group between first 2 and last 2 min of observation and $—0.10 ≥ p ≥ 0.05 represent a trend towards differences vs. Control group (Sidak’s multiple comparisons test) Data are presented as box and whiskers plot. N = 11–14 rats/treatment
