Descriptive Statistics

Experiment 1
Description of image

The data table above shows the average of inflammation for each dosage, the standard deviation which is the distance from each data point from the mean, the endpoint number and the measurement of accuracy called the standard error (SD Error). This data only represents human experimentation.


Experiment 2
Description of image Description of image

These two data sets show the Mean (average), Standard Deviation (SD), and Standard Error (SE). These data sets are shown by the amount of protein dosed. For Humans:0mg, 5mg,10mg,and 15mg. For Rats: 0mg and 10mg.

Results

Experiment 1
Description of image

The graph presents the average inflammatory protein amount per dosage. The standard deviation shows the average distance from each data point from the average output of inflammatory protein.

Experiment 2
Description of image Description of image

These are the graphs for the human study and rat study. These graphs show the the average Inflammatory protein amount per dosage in mg. The error bar is one standard deviation above and below the average of both data sets.



Analysis

Experiment 1
Description of image


Experiment 2
Description of image Description of image

The ANOVA for the Human Study for Experiment 2 showed a p-value of 1.4008E-16 which is significantly less than the desired p-value of 0.05; this means that between some group in the human data set there is a significant difference between 2 or more doses (0mg, 5mg, 10mg, and 15mg) of lipopolysaccharide- it is unknown between exactly which two doses because individual t-tests were not conducted. However, in the rat study the t-test p-value turned out to be 0.867405; this is significantly higher than the desired 0.05 p-value; meaning there is no statistical difference between 0mg and 10mg in rats. Overall, the human experiment proved to have a statistically significant difference between dosages.
