Total CADESI-4 index scores recorded by veterinarians during the study period. Scores did not differ between groups at any time point. Scores were significantly lower for diet B on day 60. There was no difference between days in diet A. Data are reported as median (range). *P value to compare groups within each day. †P value to compare days within each group. Note that for diet A, statistical significance disappeared after adjusting for multiple comparisons. Within each column, days with different superscript letters differ from each other (p < 0.05)
