Table 4 Outcomes of dogs treated with DBM mix (D1–5) and dogs treated with GM (G1–5) based on stepwedge numbers. The stepwedge numbers ranged from 1 to 12, with one being the least dense and 12 the highest density possible. Comparisons were made at three sites: proximal to the cage, between cage and plate, distal to the plate, and the mean is reported. No significant differences were found between time points or treatment groups
