Figure 8

Absolute concentration of butyrate (μmol g⁻¹ wet weight). Sham, sham-operated group; VaD, VaD model group; H, C. butyricum- (1 × 10⁸ CFU-) treated group; M, C. butyricum- (1 × 10⁷ CFU-) treated group; and L, C. butyricum- (1 × 10⁶ CFU-) treated group. Error bars indicate SD; for each group. versus sham group, versus sham group, and and versus VaD group.
