Effects of different NaCl contents in drinking water on hematocrit (HCT) and ascites heart index (AHI) of broilers. They were randomly divided into four groups: a control group (deionized water, NaCl at 0 g/L), a freshwater group (FW, deionized water + NaCl at 1 g/L), high salinized freshwater group 1 (H-SFW-1, deionized water + NaCl at 2.5 g/L) and high salinized freshwater group 2 (H-SFW-2, deionized water + NaCl at 5 g/L). a AHI (RV/TV, right ventricular weight/total ventricular weight) of broilers in control group, FW group, H-SFW-1 group and H-SFW-2 group. (n = 10, ** P < 0.01 vs. control). b HCT of broilers in control group, FW group, H-SFW-1 group and H-SFW-2 group (n = 10, ** P < 0.01 vs. control)
