Postnatal growth in offspring.

<p>Postnatal growth in males (A, C) and females (B, D) from the first (A, B; N = 5 HFHS dams, 28 pups, 6 CON dams, 43 pups) and second cohorts (C, D; N = 8 HFHS dams, 44 pups, 9 CON dams, 53 pups). Although the diet by sex interaction was not significant at any age, data for each sex are presented separately for clarity, and values are least squares means ± standard error from repeated measures analyses including effects of diet, sex, and the diet by sex interaction with dam as the random subject. Asterisks denote ages at which effect of diet is significant (P < 0.05).
