Analytical results of experimental common eider (Somateria mollissima) pulli from the County of Blekinge 2013. (a) Mortality was low or absent in the two thiamine treatment groups but high in the control group, i.e. death was prevented by thiamine treatment. (b) Minimal neuropil vacuolation in the brain was associated with inability to dive. (c–d) Thiamine treatment had a therapeutic effect on both brain SumT and proportion brain TDP (the Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by the exact Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test as a post-hoc test). (c) Brain SumT. (d) Proportion brain TDP. (e–f) In both liver and brain, there was a negative relationship (ordinary least squares regression) between proportion TDP and T concentration, indicative of various degree of thiamine deficiency⁴. (e) Liver. (f) Brain. ● Box plots drawn according to Tamhane & Dunlop⁴⁸. C = control.
