Effects of Allopurinol treatment on piglet birth measures.

Degrees of freedom, F-values, associated probabilities, mean, SEMs and Ns op the ALLO-treated and untreated control piglets are listed.Differences in birth measures between piglets from the six sows treated with allopurinol and four control sows. Note that the data of two sows of the control condition (no ALLO treatment) were not used because they did not give birth to LBW piglets (see Table 1 for details). Full body length (cm) = snout to tail base; snout length (cm) = snout to end of skull; ponderal index = weight/length3.
