Figure 1

Effects of obesity and ovariectomy on tibial μCT parameters in Zucker rats. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM. Values that do not share the same superscript letters are significantly () different from each other. rats/group. L/S, lean () sham-operated; L/O, lean () ovariectomized; O/S, obese () sham-operated; and O/O, obese () ovariectomized.
