Fig. 1 Effects of Ramadan fasting on body mass (a) and 6-min walking distance (b) of 18 non-athlete boys fasting for the first time.
Mean values are shown. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals. BR: before Ramadan, R2: end of the second week of Ramadan, R4: end of the fourth week of Ramadan, AR: 10–12 days after the end of Ramadan. *p<0.05: ANOVA. (A, B) † p<0.05 (Wilcoxon test): BR vs. other periods; ‡ p<0.05 (Wilcoxon test): R2 vs. R4; ll p<0.05 (Wilcoxon test): R4 vs. AR. (A) ‡ p<0.05 (Wilcoxon test): R2 vs. R4. (B) ll p< 0.05 (Wilcoxon test): R4 vs. AR.
