Table 5 Effect of standard and MHAL and EAHAL in acetic acid-induced writhing test

From: Anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive and antidiarrhoeal activities of methanol and ethyl acetate extract of Hemigraphis alternata leaves in mice

Treatment groups	Dose	No. of writhing	% of inhibition	p value
Control	10 mL/kg	37.60 ± 2.16	0.00 ± 0.00	–
DS	100 mg/kg	9.40 ± 1.33^***	74.15 ± 4.86^***	.000
MHAL	200 mg/kg	29.60 ± 2.09^*	20.39 ± 6.83^*	.041
MHAL	400 mg/kg	19.20 ± 2.24^***	49.17 ± 4.41^***	.000
EAHAL	200 mg/kg	25.50 ± 3.11^**	30.73 ± 7.52^**	.002
EAHAL	400 mg/kg	18.00 ± 1.58^***	54.00 ± 2.38^***	.000

All of the experimental values are denoted as mean ± SEM. MHAL = Methanol extract of Hemigraphis alternata leaves. EAHAL = Ethyl acetate extract of Hemigraphis alternata leaves. “^*푃 < 0.05, ^** 푃 < 0.01, ^*** 푃 < 0.001 versus control group (Dunnett’s test)”
