Scatterplot of the relative weight (rWeight) and associated relative AUCins (rAUCins) for every horse. The coloured lines correspond to the regression lines of the full weighted least squares model presented in Fig. 2. The black line is the individual trend as determined by simple linear regression. On the small pasture the average evolution of the insulin response to weight loss is almost stationary, except for horse 3, whose response is rather similar to the one observed on the large pasture. Possible reasons for these differences by pastures are discussed in “Possible causes for the lack of response in some individuals”
