Tukey-Kramer multiple comparisons procedure used for pairwise comparisons of group means in oneway AN OVA for unbalanced groups. Words are formed by group letters (as indicated in italics in column headings), in descending order of group means. For each outcome, a pairwise contrast is statistically significant (p<0.05) if and only if the corresponding pair of letters do not appear together in any of the words for that outcome. For example, for the glucose outcome only those pairwise contrasts involving Group G are significant, while for the pH outcome the H vs. K pairwise contrast is not significant but all other pairwise contrasts are.
