A Graphical presentation of the study design. B Representative necropsy photographs of pig stomach, small intestine and colon with minimal (upper left) or severe pathological changes (upper right). Arrows point to necrotic patches in the mucosa, and arrowheads highlight macroscopic pneumatosis intestinalis. Pathological severity (lower left) and macroscopic NEC incidence (lower right) are shown. C Representative micrographs of hematoxylin & eosin stained intact (upper left) and severely disrupted small intestine (upper right) captured at ×10 magnification. Histopathological severity (lower left) and microscopic NEC incidence (lower right) are showed. Asterisk and double asterisks denote statistical probability levels below 0.05 or 0.01, respectively.
