The mean average for rats give a dose of 10 mg of LPS was 11.112 pg/ml of inflammotin. The standard deviation for rats given a dose of 0 mg of LPS was 2.225551617 pg/ml. The standard deviation for rats given a dose of 10 mg of LPS was 7.402885924 pg/ml. The standard error for rats given a dose of 0 mg of LPS was 0.995296941 pg/ml. The standard error for rats given a dose of 10 mg of LPS was 3.310671231 pg/ml. Experiment 2 The mean average for humans given a dose of 0mg of LPS was 3.960909091 pg/ml of Inflammotin.

Results Experiment 1 ‎Experiment 2 Analysis Experiment 1 For the data involving the rats, we did a 2 sample t-test because there was only two data sets, and we needed to determine significance. H0= There is no difference in inflation levels between the rat group with the LPS dose of 10mg and the control group with the LPS dose of 0mg Ha=There is a difference in inflation levels between the rat group with the LPS dose of 10mg and the control group with the LPS dose of 0mg Therefore we accept the null hypothesis Experiment 2 We did t-test for the human data sets to determine the significance between the different dosages. We also did an ANOVA for the human data sets to determine overall significance. Anova: H0= There is no difference in inflation levels between the elderly group with the LPS dose of 5mg, 10mg, 15mg, and the control group with the LPS dose of 0mg Ha=There is a difference in inflation levels between the elderly group with the LPS dose of 5mg, 10mg, 15mg, and the control group with the LPS dose of 0mg T-tests: H0= There is no difference in inflation levels between the elderly group with the LPS dose of 5mg and the control group with the LPS dose of 0mg Ha=There is a difference in inflation levels between the elderly group with the LPS dose of 5mg and the control group with the LPS dose of 0mg H0= There is no difference in inflation levels between the elderly group with the LPS dose of 5mg and 10mg Ha=There is a difference in inflation levels between the elderly group with the LPS dose of 5mg and 10mg H0= There is no difference in inflation levels between the elderly group with the LPS dose of 10mg and 15mg Ha=There is a difference in inflation levels between the elderly group with the LPS dose of 10mg and 15mg Summary/Discussion In order to perform a 2 sample t-test we are assuming that the selection of the subjects was completely random and unbiased. As well, each sample is independent from every other sample. Also the sample size of rat and humans are assumed to be less than 10% of the population, in order to ensure there is the same probability of picking a random person in the population and we assume the data has a normal distribution. In the ANOVA test run on the human data, the p-value was 1.401*10^-16, meaning that there was a high difference between at least on data set and it was nearly impossible that the data occurred randomly.Using T-tests in the human data, we determined that the data was significant in humans, meaning that there was a low chance of the same data occurring randomly. Since our p-value of 8.59631E-07(0mg vs 5mg), 3.01859E-05(5mg vs 10mg) and 6.4824E-08(10mg vs 15mg) were less than our alpha level of .0167, therefore we reject our null hypothesis, we can then conclude that there is a statistical difference between each dose in human trials. If the LPS does was ineffective there would be a 1.67% probability that the data was made by random chance. In rats however, there was no significance. Even though they were given a dose of LPS, there was no data to support that there was an increased amount of Inflammotin when compared to each dosage of LPS. This means that in the elderly, an increased amount of inflammation will most likely increase the amount of protein, Inflammotin. In the rats, since our p-value of 0.867403497 is lower than our alpha level of .05,therefore we fail to reject our null hypothesis, there is no evidence to support that an increased amount of inflammation causes an increased amount of Inflammotin. Finally we can conclude from the data that there is a correlation between an increase in LPS dose and an increase level of inflamaton in human trials only.
