Although a slightly increasing trend in renal indices was observed, this phenomenon was due to cardiorenal syndrome, which is naturally observed in patients with MD and advanced heart failure [ 18 , 19 ].

The expression of DMT1 showed a slightly increasing trend, but there was no statistically significant difference ( Figure 4(c-d )).

Confronting the estimated means of time spent grazing during each period, a slightly increasing trend can be observed in all time slots, especially when comparing P1-P3 to P4-P5, indeed, both groups showed higher grazing activity in P4 and P5 when compared with the other periods of trial.
