  1. Values marked with * are significantly different from each other, but not any other values in that row. Values with different superscript letters are statistically different from each other. For example, columns with ‘a’ are significantly different from columns with ‘b’, or ‘c’, but not different from other columns with ‘a’. For example, hematocrit percentages for PBS and PC treated animals are significantly lower than sulindac treated animals, but are not different from each other.
