Body Weight and Absolute and Relative Liver Weight
| Group | Body Weight (g) | Liver Weight | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Absolute (g) | Relative (%) | ||
| Control | 192.6 ± 4.4 | 6.4 ± 0.9 | 3.35 ± 0.2 |
| Periodontitis | 189.3 ± 3.1 | 6.5 ± 0.8 | 3.49 ± 0.3 |
Relative weights are organ weight/body weight (g), mean of individual ratios ± SEM for values, measured at time of sacrifice. Comparison between the weights of organs in the control and periodontitis group showed no statistically significant difference in any parameter (P >0.05).
