Table 4 Correlation matrix between line means of all traits on high-fat dietary challenge (HFD, 42 % fat) within sexes (females, above the diagonal; males, below the diagonal) a. BW, Body Weight; BMI, Body Mass Index; WC, Waist circumference; Total AUC, total area under curve of the intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test; Initial, measurements at experiment start-point age of 8 weeks; End, end time-point of the experiment after 12 weeks high-fat dietary challenge; Gain, difference between end and initial time-point values

From: High-fat-diet induced development of increased fasting glucose levels and impaired response to intraperitoneal glucose challenge in the collaborative cross mouse genetic reference population
