2. Figure 1
Box and whiskers plots of the reproductive hormones profile. Values are medians (horizontal bars) with 25th and 75th percentiles (boxes); the “whiskers” indicate nonoutlier range. Differences are evaluated with nonparametric Friedman analysis of variance (ANOVA) by ranks. (A) P=.0156 between intermediate (after 22 days of exercise at high altitude) and sea level at baseline (SL-pre), or between intermediate and after 10 days upon reaching sea level (SL-post); (B) P=.0475 for SL-pre and intermediate, P=.0313 for intermediate and SL-post; (C) P=.0156 for SL-pre and intermediate, P=.0313 for intermediate and SL-post; (D) P=.0156 for SL-pre and SL-post, P=.0475 for intermediate and SL-post.
