The VH measurements from the tip of the villus to the junction of villus and crypt showed a marginally significant difference where the TN villi were slightly longer than HSAX ( p = 0.055).

Also, highly significant was the difference in the HSAX group in comparison to the HS group, a potential benefit of the AST to promote a mucosal barrier to serve as protection from undesirable intrusions.
