Table 2. Growth variables (as median and quartiles) of mouse pups at postnatal day P14.
Normoxic controls | Sham treated double-hit | Cell treated double-hit | |
---|---|---|---|
Number of animals (lungs) | 22 (n = 11) | 21 (n = 10) | 20 (n = 9) |
Body weight [g] | 5.5 (5.3-7.7) | 4.3 (3.9-4.6) | 4.4 (3.9-4.8) |
Body length [mm] | 44.9 (41.8-47.2) | 34.6 (31.4-35.4) | 35.9 (34.1-37.3) |
Head length [mm] | 18.9 (18.6-19.6) | 17.7 (17.2-20.1) | 18 (17.8-19.6) |
Lung weight [g] | 0.09 (0.09-0.1) | 0.07 (0.06-0.08) | 0.07 (0.07-0.08) |
Body weight, body length and lung weight showed significant changes between the normoxic control and both double-hit groups (p < 0.001 each). Lung weight was not determined in all animals (numbers for each group given in parenthesis).
