Table 5

Effect of hydro-methanol and solvent fractions on ethanol-induced ulcer (10 days).

Treatment	Ulcer score (US)	Reduction in US (%)	Ulcer index (UI)	Reduction in UI (%)
NC		—		—
CE200		31.5	^a1	71.86
CF200		16.43		39.76
AF200		31.5	^a1	70.76
M5		54.8	^a1	72.96

Values are expressed as (). ¹, ², and ³. NC = vehicle; CE200 = crude extract at 200 mg/kg; CF200 = chloroform fraction at 200 mg/kg; AF200 = aqueous fraction at 200 mg/kg; M5 = misoprostol at 5 μg/kg; ^a = compared with NC. Statistical comparisons are significant at .
