Iron deficiency influences FA at PND 32 and PND 61. Early life dietary iron status influences pig FA for specific brain regions over time. Diffusion measures of FA indicated interactive effects of dietary treatment and MRI day in the (A) left cortex (P = 0.03), (B) right cortex (P = 0.05), and (C) whole brain (P < 0.001). Abbreviations: CONT, control; ID, iron deficient; PND, postnatal day; FA, fractional anisotropy. a,b,cMeans without a common letter differ, P < 0.05.
