Recollective memory. CIH impaired recollective memory in the novel object recognition task by increasing latency to the novel object (A) and decreasing novel object contacts (B). Female rats had shorter latency to the novel object than males (F_{1, 60} = 4.386; p = 0.040; η² = 0.053; A). No effect of sex was observed on novel object contacts (B). No effect of MT was observed on recollective memory (A, B). Data for novel object latency was log transformed for analysis. Raw values are shown and error bars denote mean ± S.E.M. Analyzed by 3-way ANOVA with Fisher’s LSD multiple comparisons tests. ANOVA significance indicated by: *p ≤ 0.05; **p ≤ 0.01; ***p < 0.001; Post-hoc significance indicated by unique letters (p ≤ 0.05). Significant effects observed (A): CIH (F_{1, 60} = 14.011; p < 0.001; η² = 0.141); Sex (F_{1, 60} = 4.386; p = 0.040; η² = 0.053). Significant effects observed (B): CIH (F_{1, 60} = 9.664; p = 0.003; η² = 0.131). CIH chronic intermittent hypoxia, MT MitoTEMPOL
