Effects of CdCl2 alone and in combination with letrozole (CdCl2 + letrozole) on the body weight and absolute and relative testes weights of male mice

Groups Body weight TW TW/BW ratio (mg/g)
Initial BW Final BW
Control 30.52 ± 0.41 35.97 ± 0.57 0.25 ± 0.01 0.68 ± 0.02
Cd (4 mg/kg) 30.99 ± 0.64 33.55 ± 0.53* 0.24 ± 0.01 0.73 ± 0.03
Cd + letrozole (4 + 0.25 mg/kg) 30.85 ± 0.21 34.89 ± 0.31# 0.25 ± 0.01 0.72 ± 0.03

BW Body weight, TW Testis weight. Means ± SEM of five animals in each group. Compared with control group, *p < 0.05; compared with the Cd group, #p < 0.05
