Tumor incidence and multiplicity of groups were compared using Fisher’s Exact test (see text).
Fraction of mice with each cancer type. Percent of mice with the tumor type shown in parentheses. In addition to adenomas and carcinomas, one mouse in Group 1B had two hepatoblastoma and one mouse in Group 3E had one hemangiosarcoma.
Total number of hepatocellular adenomas or carcinomas in all mice.
