Shows whether the parameter was significantly reduced in diabetes.
Shows the effect of insulin alone or insulin's combination with IGF-I on the parameter in diabetes.
Shows whether insulin's combination with IGF-I was more effective than insulin alone. Notice that combo treatment exceeded ND group in few cases.
Shows whether the treatments normalized the parameter reduced in diabetes such that it no longer statistically differed from the non-diabetic group.
Significance accepted at p<0.05, Tukey-Kramer posthoc test of means.
