Changes in Bodyweights with Various Doses of EV. Mean ratios using baseline (the weight of the rats just before injections) and the mean of Day 4 after injections (after) to obtain a % change in bodyweight across doses of EV. A ratio greater than 1 indicates that the subjects gained weight and a ratio less than 1 indicates that subjects lost weight. The mean weight across all rats just before injections was 223.5 g and it was arranged so that the groups' weights were nearly the same before injections. N = 10 females a group. The lines above the bars depict standard errors of the means. The two darkest gray bars denote p-values associated with t-test comparisons to the placebo values and those values are ps > 0.75. The p-values associated with the lighter gray bars range from 0.04 to 0.01. The p-values associated with doses depicted by the white bars are ps < 0.0000001.
