FIGURE 2.
Percentage rat body weight change during gestation period relative to Day 1 (D1) across pregnancy outcomes. Unlike rats undergoing pregnancy termination, which displayed a significant weight loss, the body weight of rats that naturally miscarried did not decrease significantly, but stabilized following the miscarriage. n = 19–20 rats/group (D+P+ and D-P+); n = 5 rats (miscarriage group). ∗p < 0.05, ∗∗∗p < 0.001 (Relative to Miscarriage Group); ###p < 0.001 (Relative to D-P+). Data is expressed as mean ± SEM.
