Table 4.
Total milk output across lactation days 1, 2, 3*
| Group | Grams of milk (median ± iqr) |
|---|---|
| Primiparous VEH (n=6) | 169.6 (112.9, 235.2) |
| Primiparous OTA (n= 26) | 158.95 (10.2, 266.1) |
| Multiparous VEH (n= 13) | 171.9 (67.1, 281.4) |
| Multiparous OTA (n= 9) | 172.7 (40.8, 299.8) |
Milk output was quantified on lactation days 1, 2, 3 in primiparous and multiparous rabbits that received icv injections of OTA or VEH from gestation day 29 to lactation day 3. The amounts obtained on each of these days (for each group) were added to determine a single value of total milk output. The median values (± iqr) were then calculated for each group. A two-way ANOVA of the original individual values was used to compare the effects of parity and agent injected icv.
