Gestational alcohol exposure beginning from embryonic day (E) 8.5 to E17.5 and E13.5 to E17.5 and comparisons of these exposure windows with respect to fetal body weight (a), fetal brain-to-body weight ratio (b), fetal heart-to-body weight ratio (c), fetal liver-to-body weight ratio (d), and fetal brain-to-liver weight ratio (e). Data were analyzed separately for males and females using mixed linear model followed by post hoc Benjamini-Hochberg corrections to adjust for multiple comparisons. Values are presented as means ± SEMs. n = 9 dams for NP-MD-8 and NP-MD-13 groups, n = 8 dams for NP-Alc-8 group, and n = 10 dams for NP-Alc-13 group. Asterisk (*) denotes statistical significance (P < 0.05) for the indicated comparison. Abbreviations: Alc, alcohol; MD, maltodextrin; NP, normal protein
