Fig. 2. Box and whisker plots of the (A) body mass (M_b) standardized surface areas and average fractal dimensions of profiles extracted along the axes (B) parallel and (C) perpendicular to the axis of soft tissue attachment (STA) of the attachment sites, as illustrated in Fig. 1. Values for the control group are indicated with black boxes and for the exercised group with white boxes. Boxes represent the interquartile range, or 50% of the values, and the line across the box indicates the median. The whiskers indicate the spread of observed values that fall within 1.5 times the interquartile range. Outliers are designated with (X) if they are between 1.5x and 3x the interquartile range, and () if they fall outside 3x this range. Attachment sites: INF, Infraspinatus insertion; BB, Biceps brachii insertion; QF, Quadriceps femoris insertion; GO, Gastrocnemius origin; GI, Gastrocnemius insertion; MSTR, Masseter insertion.
