WHAT IF? Suppose you were studying two groupsof obese people with genetic abnormalities in theleptin pathway. In one group, the leptin levels areabnormally high; in the other group, they are abnormally low. How would each group’s leptin levels changeif they ate a low-calorie diet for an extended period?Explain.
Hi I'm studying pharmacokinetics and i was reading a study on how food can increase the F while fasted does not on ivermectin. The study was using VPc and bootstrap analysis and i could not understand either. The graph on vpc was odd looking with tre lines and i could not differentiate which was observant and simulation. Please explain? also why are there so many black dots around the second line in the middle and what does it mean?
