Total fat absorption based on CFA and theoretical dietary fat content in minipig six weeks (filled) after PDL and 97–126 weeks (dashed and dotted) after pancreatic duct ligation (PDL). Pigs underwent different PERT studies with three different dietary compositions (ca. 56 g fat (filled), 60 g fat high fibre (dashed), ca. 75 g fat low fibre (dotted)) and duration times. Pigs were fed twice a day over seven to fourteen days and feces was collected on days 5–7 or 10–14 and fat contend was determined. Mean values and standard deviations only from identical groups of animals were calculated to compare the results directly after the operation with those obtained about 2 years later. (Placebo n = 5; pancearin n = 5.). Statistical analysis was conducted using two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test with two-way, paired post hoc Tukey test. Whereas p < 0.01 = * slightly significant (≙Bonferoni korrection for n = 5)
