sNCAM: soluble neural cell adhesion molecule; sGFAP: soluble glial fibrillary acidic protein; fGFAP: filamentous glial fibrillary acidic protein; H: healthy pigs+PAF; P: EPI pigs+PAF enriched with enteric-coated pig pancreatic enzymes; L: EPI pigs+PAF predigested with microbial lipase. Data are presented as the mean ± SD.
