An extensively hydrolysed protein-based extruded diet in the treatment of dogs with chronic enteropathy and at least one previous diet-trial failure: a pilot uncontrolled open-label study

Table 3 Canine inflammatory bowel Disease Activity Index score over time in dogs with confirmed chronic enteropathy

CIBDAI		Visit 0^a (n = 13)	Visit 1 (n = 13)	Visit 2 (n = 13)	Visit 3 (n = 11)
Score	Category	Number (%) of dogs
0–3	Clinically insignificant	0 (0)	8 (62)	8 (62)	11 (100)
4–5	Mild	0 (0)	3 (23)	4 (31)	0 (0)
6–8	Moderate	5 (38)	0 (0)	1 (8)	0 (0)
≥ 9	Severe	8 (62)	2 (15)	0 (0)	0 (0)

Overall there was a significant effect of visit on CIBDAI score (P < 0.0001). ^aScores at visit 0 were higher than those at visits 1, 2 and 3 (P < 0.0001 for each comparison)
