Dose-dependent effects of G. muris infection on cyst excretion dynamics in C57BL/6J mice. (a) Fecal cyst counts were monitored every 2–3 days up to day 21 p.i.. Each point represents the mean number of cysts per gram of feces (CPG) ± SEM (n = 15 for days 0–6; n = 10 for days 8–13; n = 5 for days 15–21). (b) Cumulative fecal cyst output (CPG) calculated over three time-intervals: days 0–7, 0–14, and 0–21 p.i.. Each bar represents the mean cumulative cyst count ± SEM (same n as above for each interval). Differences were analyzed using a mixed-effects model with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons (*P < 0.05, ****P < 0.0001).
