-
aCorrelations calculated for incremental area under the transformed curve, controlling for hour 0 values of the two variables. Correlation coefficients were calculated as partial Pearson correlations; mixed model regression (with a random effect of subject) was used to calculate p-values for each correlation in order to account for the fact that the four measurements were not independent of each other. N = 36
- Bone variables: type 1 C-terminal collagen propeptide (C1CP), C-telopeptide of type 1 collagen (CTX)
- Inflammatory variables: interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-18 (IL-18), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-10 (IL-10), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule (sICAM)
