Body and absolute fat mass weights are in grams; fat mass-to-body-weight ratios (relative weights) are given as g fat weight/g body weight. Values are reported as mean ± s.e.m.

i

Indicates an apparent difference relative to VEH/CON (p < 0.06) by Dunnet’s post hoc test following One-way ANOVA (F(2,41) = 2.724, p = 0.08).
