The Morris Water Maze (MWM) is the most commonly used assay for evaluating learning and memory in laboratory mice. Despite its widespread use, contemporary reviews have highlighted substantial methodological variation in experimental protocols and that the associated testing procedures are acutely (each trial) and chronically (testing across days) stressful; stress impairs attention, memory consolidation and the retrieval of learned information. Moreover, the interpretation of behavior within the MWM is often difficult because of wall hugging, non-spatial swim strategies, floating, and jumping off the escape platform.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how reallocating time among physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep affects obesity indicators like BMI and waist circumference across various age groups.
  • Researchers analyzed data from 9,818 participants using isotemporal substitution models to understand the implications of these behavior changes.
  • Results indicated that even small shifts of 10-30 minutes can significantly impact obesity, with reallocating moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) to lighter activities or sedentary behavior having particularly detrimental effects.
