Comparison was made between vehicle control and test groups using the one-way ANOVA test followed by Dunnett's test. Values are mean ± SD for 10 rats in each group (P ^* < 0.05).

TGL: triglycerides, SGOT: serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, SGPT: serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, Na⁺: sodium, K⁺: potassium, and Cl⁻: chloride.
