highly significantp < 0.0001
Nonparametric one-way ANOVA with repeated measures design by ranks (Friedman tests) revealed highly significant changes during the oGTT (AcG: p < 0.0001; UnG: p = 0.0007; ratio: p = 0.0087), but as specified by post-hoc Dunn’s Tests, in contrast to our expectations, we did not observe a strong decrease in circulating ghrelin levels after glucose ingestion.
