  1. Medians of Foxp3+ lymphocytes per group are given as cells/62 500 μm2. la pro = lamina propria. vi = villus. cry-total = total crypt area. cry-a = apical crypt area. cry-b = basal crypt area. IBD-E = IBD dominated by eosinophilic inflammation. IBD-LP = IBD characterised by lymphoplasmacytic infiltration.
