Effect of hydroethanolic leaf extract of Cordia vignei on macroscopic score of colons of acetic acid-induced colitic rats. Colitis was induced as described in Method. Rats were euthanized on day 8 and the colons were excised, longitudinally opened, washed, and examined (a–f). Colons were scored from 0-100% in ascending order of severity of inflammation (g). Results were presented as mean ± SEM. ^####P < 0.0001 (acetic acid control vs. naïve control); ^∗∗P < 0.01; ^∗∗∗P < 0.001 (acetic acid control vs. treatment group) using t test.
