OUR TEAM Name: Christa Deckman Name: Gabrielle Mills Name: Ngan Nguyen Name: Dylan Bonch Name: Evan Higgs Name: Niel Restogi LAB 2: Means, Standard Deviations, t-test, and ANOVAs Descriptive Statistics Experiment 1 An ANOVA was completed for the human data since multiple levels of dosages were present. A post-hoc was used due to a significant result on the ANOVA. Experiment 2 A t-test was completed for the rat data because only two levels of LPS were presented in this sample. Results Experiment 1 ‎Experiment 2 Analysis Experiment 1 We are 13.36% confident that there is a significant difference in the Inflammotin protein levels, in pg/mL, between the rat group receiving 0 mg of LPS (control group) and the rat group receiving 5 mg of LPS. Therefore, there is no sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference in the Inflammotin protein level in result of the difference in LPS dosage amounts. Experiment 2 We are more than 99% confident that there is a significant difference in the Inflammotin protein levels, in pg/mL, between the four groups of humans receiving 0 mg, 5 mg, 10, mg, and 15 mg of LPS. We are more than 99% confident that there is a significant difference in the Inflammotin protein levels, in pg/mL, between 0 v. 5 mg, 5 v. 10 mg, 10 v. 15 mg, 0 v. 10 mg, 0 v. 15 mg, and 5 v. 15 mg of LPS. Therefore, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference in the Inflammotin protein level in result of the difference in LPS dosage amounts. Summary/Discussion Given the differing results between the human and rat studies, it may be concluded that Inflammoton has a significant effect on humans, and a lesser effect on rats. Seeing as there is little difference in the Inflammotin protein levels between the two dosages in rats, given a high P-value, there is not sufficient evidence that LPS dosages dramatically effect rat protein levels. In addition, given the low P-value, there is sufficient evidence that differing LPS dosages causes a differing amount of Inflammotin protein level growth in humans.
