Porosity measured across the entire thickness of the medial quadrant of the femoral diaphysis (overall ROI).

Data are represented as median (interquartile range). A Mann-Whitney test was performed between Ctrl and OVX. A Kruskal-Wallis test was performed between OVX, ALN, and PTH. For each parameter that showed a significant difference with Kruskal-Wallis (p < 0.05), a Mann-Whitney test was performed to test for differences between specific groups.
a
different from ALN (p <0.05)
p
different from PTH (p <0.05)
