Alendronate disturbs femoral growth due to changes during immunolocalization of transforming growth factor-β1 and bone morphogenetic protein-2 in epiphyseal plate

Table 1 Median, minimum and maximum values of linear value found between the apex of the greater trochanter until to the lower intercondylar midlle face

Day	Linear Size of Femur (cm)		P value
	Control	Alendronate
3	5.93 (5.67 – 6.04)	6.85 (5.99 – 7.21)	P = 0.062
12	12.72 (11.67-13.52)	8.84 (8.43 – 9.08)	P = 0.027

For each same time period values P > 0.05 are statistically similar.
