Automata vote tallies for celiac (C) and non-celiac controls (N). The number of votes for each are shown for small intestinal levels 1, 2, 3, and 4. Vote = the overall vote for celiac, non-celiac, or tie (-) based on the tally for each. The vote tallies for celiac patients with villous atrophy and control patients lacking villous atrophy confirmed by intestinal biopsy. The Marsh score based on the intestinal biopsy is given (Mar) except in one patient who was a hemophiliac it was not determined (ND). Means and standard deviations are provided in the lower two rows, with significances based on the paired t-test shown.
