TABLE 1.

Results from two-way ANOVA models for each outcome. The overall test (left column) shows results of testing for any difference in the outcome (Age-related or diet-related difference.) The next two columns show results of tests for differences across Age groups within LFD and HFD groups. The right-hand-side column shows results of testing for a difference between LFD and HFD diet groups aggregated over age. The numbers in parenthesis for each F-value are the numerator and denominator degrees of freedom associated with that particular test.
