- no obvious outliers
- variance increases with mean, as expected from growth, suggests a multiplicative model. But start with simple lm.

##
## Suggested power transformation: 0.06419448- QQ indicates possible right skew but especially left side is squashed toward mean
- spread-level indicates variance increases with mean
For p-value, this may not be too severe but for intervals, best to account for this. Try gamma with log link (which makes biological sense for growth)

2.7.10 Figure 2c – report
Results could be reported using either:
(This is inconsistent with plot, if using this, the plot should reverse what factor is on the x-axis and what factor is the grouping (color) variable) Mean weight gain in ASK1F/F mice on HFD was 1.56 (95% CI: 1.33, 1.82, \(p < 0.0001\)) times that of ASK1F/F mice on chow while mean weight gain in ASK1Δadipo mice on HFD was only 1.22 (95% CI: 1.01, 1.47, \(p = 0.036\)) times that of ASK1Δadipo mice on chow. This reduction in weight gain in ASK1Δadipo mice compared to ASK1F/F control mice was 0.79 times (95% CI; 0.61, 1.00, \(p = 0.0531\)).
(This is consistent with the plot in that its comparing difference in the grouping factor within each level of the factor on the x-axis) Mean weight gain in ASK1Δadipo mice on chow was trivially larger (1.03 times) than that in ASK1F/F mice on chow (95% CI: 0.83, 1.27, \(p = 0.81\)) while mean weight gain in ASK1Δadipo mice on HFD was smaller (0.81 times) than that in ASK1F/F control mice on HFD (95% CI: 0.72 , 0.91, \(p = 0.0003\)). This reduction in weight gain in ASK1Δadipo mice compared to ASK1Δadipo mice is 0.79 times (95% CI; 0.61, 1.00, \(p = 0.0531\)).
note to research team. The big difference in p-values between weight difference on chow and weight difference on HFD might lead one to believe there is a “difference in this difference.” Using a p-value = effect strategy, this is not supported.

2.9 Figure 2e – Effect of ASK1 deletion on glucose tolerance (summary measure)
The researchers did create a table to import but this analysis uses the mean post-baseline glucose amount as the response instead of the area under the curve of over the full 120 minutes. This mean is computed as the post-baseline area under the curve divided by the duration of time of the post-baseline measures (105 minutes). This analysis will use fig_2d_wide since there is only one a single Y variable per mouse.

## Suggested power transformation: 1.294553- The QQ plot looks okay, in the sense that the observed data points (open circles) fall within the boundaries set by the dashed line.
- spread level looks pretty good
- Fit normal model

Mean TG level in ASK1Δadipo mice on a high-fat diet was 21.6 µmol/g less than that in ASK1F/F mice on a high-fat diet (95% CI: -37.3, -5.9, \(p = 0.012\)) (Figure xxx).
