% of Efficacy

  1. T. spiralis larvae count was represented as mean ± SD, while the efficacy was represented as percentage depending on the following low %:
  2. Efficacy = [(Mean count in the infected control group − Mean count in the study group) / Mean count in the infected control group] × 100
  3. ap-value is significantly different from the control based on the Student’s t-test
  4. bp-value is significantly different when comparing groups based on the one-way ANOVA test
  5. cp-value significantly differs between groups depending on a post hoc test (Dunnett T3)
  6. *p-value < 0.05 is significant
  7. **p-value < 0.01 is highly significant
