Data show median and interquartile range [Q1; Q3]; p-value was reported by Kruskal-Wallis test. Data labeled with a different letter represents statistically significant differences with a p-value < 0.05 by Dunn’s pairwise comparison to adjust for multiple comparisons. NPNL = non-pregnant/non-lactating.
