  1. Comparisons were made with the use of a series of t-tests. (IH: Interdigital Hyperplasia, IHC: IH Control IIH: Infected Interdigital Hyperplasia, IIHC: IIH Control, IP: Interdigital Phlegmon, IPC: IP Control, SU: Sole Ulcer, SUC: SU Control, TN: Toe Necrosis, TNC: TN Control, WLD: White Line Disease, WLDC: WLD Control). Statistically significant comparisons (P < 0.05) are highlighted in bold.
