Effects of HP diet on bone metabolism, aortic calcification, and renal calcification in OVX rats (Experiment 1): Scatter plots represent individual rats (n = 8), and horizontal bars through the plots indicate the mean values (af). Columns with error bars represent the mean ± SEM of eight rats. (g) Bars or columns with different letters are significantly different (p < 0.05). (a) Lumbar vertebral bone mineral density. (b) Serum CTX/TRACP5b ratio (bone resorption index). (c) Abdominal aortic calcium concentration. (d) Abdominal aortic phosphorus concentration. (e) Renal calcium concentration. (f) Renal phosphorus concentration. (g) Urinary total protein excretion at 2nd, 4th, 8th, and 12th weeks. NP, normal phosphorus diet; HP, high phosphorus diet; OVX, ovariectomy.
