Table 3

Histological scores of liver steatosis from DIO mice treated with V. vitis-idaea.

Groups	𝑛	Grades of steatosis
		0	1	2	3
CHOW	11	11	0	0	0
Control DIO	11	0	1	1	9
V. vitis-idaea 125 mg/kg	12	2	2	2	6
V. vitis-idaea 250 mg/kg	12	4	0	1	7
V. vitis-idaea 500 mg/kg	12	1	2	1	8

The scoring is based on the percentage of hepatocytes containing macrovesicular steatosis, grade0: 0–5%, grade 1: 5–33%, grade 2: 33–66%, and grade 3: more than 66% (21) (chi-square; 𝑃<0.05).
