The  ending number of mites in brood, percentage of mite population in 
brood, and  mites per 100 adult bees were significantly higher in small-cell  
colonies



But if you have, from the figures stated, more than twice as many bees on  
small cell, how much does it matter?  It's bees that get honey, not  
percentages!
