Effect of the ethyl acetate extract of A. hydaspica (AHE) (400 mg/kg·bw) on a body weight, b liver weight and c liver index (%) in various treatment groups. Mean ± SE (n = 6); statistical symbols in 1 a indicated significant difference in final vs initial body weight; in 1b and 1c ^{*, **, ***} indicated significance from the control group at p < 0.05, p < 0.01 and p < 0.0001 probability level, ^{+, ++, +++} indicate significance from the CP group at p < 0.05, p < 0.01 and p < 0.0001 while ^## indicate significance of AHE pre-treatment vs post treatment group at p < 0.01 probability level (One way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparison tests)
