(a) The mucosal architecture damage between sham-fed group and BI group. The mucous architecture damage was evaluated between the sham-fed and BI-fed groups. The BI-fed rats showed significantly less mucous damage (tested with an independent sample -test) (). (b) The mucosal architecture damage between sham-fed group and BI group.
