Figure 1 Empagliflozin ameliorated HFD-induced obesity and blood glucose. (A) Folding line graph of body weight change over time for each group of mice (n=9). The black arrow indicates the point in time when empagliflozin intervened. The ** on the first straight line indicates HFD vs NCD, P<0.01. **HFD vs NCD, p<0.01. &&HFD vs Empa, p<0.01. (B) Comparison of insulin levels in three groups of mice (n=8). (C) Comparison of fasting blood glucose levels in the three groups of mice (n=8). (D) IPTGG results. **HFD vs NCD, p<0.01. andand, HFD vs Empa, p<0.01. ns, P>0.05.
