very close to significanceP = 0.057
In this group, the mean concentration of 16α-OHE was very close to significance ( P = 0.057), and the mean ratio change was not significant.
In this group, the mean concentration of 16α-OHE was very close to significance ( P = 0.057), and the mean ratio change was not significant.
For the combined results in both pre- and postmenopausal women, the increase in 2-OHE in the treatment group was highly significant, and there was a trend towards significance in the 2:16a-OHE ratio.
For the treatment group, the mean change in concentration of 2-OHE was highly significant, and there was a trend towards an increase in the mean ratio of 2-OHE to 16α-OHE.
The carcinogenic ratio, which combines E3, 4-OHE (1 and 2), 16α-OHE1 and 2-OHE (1 and 2) provided more interesting results, given the significant or close-to-significant results for the treatment groups and lack thereof in the placebo groups.
