Oral Administration of Tualang and Manuka Honeys Modulates Breast Cancer Progression in Sprague-Dawley Rats Model

Table 2

Body weight measurements of rats among all groups at week 1 and week 16.

Body weight	Groups				value
	0; −ive control	1; +ive control	2; (1.0 g/kg TH)	3; (1.0 g/kg MH)
BW at week 1	167.5 (32.25)	191.5 (94.5)	138 (60.25)	142 (53.25)	0.300
BW at week 16	272 (32.25)	270.5 (31)	238 (55.75)	268 (31.75)	0.392
BW change (%)	66.54 (37.16)	32.14 (90.05)	68.21 (18.42)	109 (56.22)	0.182
ABW at week 16	272 (37.25)	245.49 (17.05)	236.76 (32.21)	249 (39.11)	0.07
ABW change (%)	66.54 (37.16)	26.52 (64.48)	66.89 (23.88)	78.09 (48.02)	0.110

Kruskal-Wallis test. Data are expressed as median interquartile range (IqR). Values are statistically significant when . Percentage body weight change or gain (BW change%) = .
Actual body weight = Body weight at week 16 − weight of tumours.
Percentage actual body weight change or gain (ABW change%) = [(ABW − IBW) × 100]/IBW.
BW: body weight, FBW = final body weight, IBW: initial body weight, and ABW: actual body weight.
