Effect of guava leaf powder on hepatic fibrosis in HCHF diet rats. (a) Control, arrowhead showed baseline collagen fiber around the bile duct; (b) control + guava leaves, similar to control, arrowhead showed baseline collagen fiber around the bile duct; (c) HCHF, arrowhead showed heavy collagen fiber was deposited around the blood vessel and bile duct; (d) HCHF+ guava leaves, arrowhead showed reduced collagen fiber deposition around the blood vessel and bile duct; (e) the % of fibrosis development in various liver tissues.
