Frequency bar charts showing differences in a supranuclear absorptive vacuolization (V), b enterocytes nuclei (EN), c enterocytes infiltration (EI), d lamina propria infiltration (LPI) and e submucosa infiltration (SMI). f Dispersion graph representing values of the first and second components for each foregut section assessed, obtained from the Principal component analysis of histological foregut scores according to diet. Only sections evaluated in all parameters were included in the Principal component analysis (n = 5 for VM and FM, n = 6 for VM+)
