Table 4

Effects of acute isopropyl caffeate treatment on the consumption of water and food and weight gain of treated female mice.

Groups	Dose (mg/kg)	Water (ml)	Food (g)	Weight gain (day 7)	Weight gain (day 14)
Control	—	6.190 ± 0.31	4.697 ± 0.14	1.100 ± 0.46	1.100 ± 0.46
Treated	300	7.673 ± 0.31	5.536 ± 0.19	2.397 ± 0.64	0.772 ± 0.10
Treated	2000	6.884 ± 0.35	4.306 ± 0.25	−1.093 ± 0.38	0.375 ± 0.28

The results are expressed as mean ± SD analysis by ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s test, (control and treated at 300 mg/kg, at 2000 mg/kg, in the first week and in the second week).
