Fig. 2: Conceptual depiction of the moderated mediation models.

A A diagram of the hypothesized moderated mediation model on the effect of antenatal stress on pups’ anxiety-like behavior, with dams’ anxiety-like behavior on PND 1 as the mediator, and escitalopram and shan-zha treatments as moderators. B A diagram of the hypothesized moderated mediation model on the effect of escitalopram treatment to lactating dams on pups’ escitalopram exposure (expressed as pups’ free SERT), with dams’ escitalopram levels as the mediator, and antenatal stress as the moderator.
