Figure 2

Relationship between Cohen’s d and age at blood sampling of the parental strains. The Cohen’s d score is here defined as the difference between the means of basal circulating total cholesterol level for A/J and C57BL/6J male mice divided by the pooled SD. The age of the animals at blood sampling from the 10 studies are as follows: [18], 6–8 weeks; [19], 8 weeks; [43], 8 weeks; [44], 8 weeks; [This study], 6–10 weeks (see Table 1); [89], 10 weeks; [45], 10–13 weeks; [46], 12 weeks; [90], 16 weeks; [20], 22–24 weeks.* = Significant parental strain difference (P < 0.05);  = non-significant parental strain difference (P ≥ 0.05).
