  1. aAll values are means ± SEMs. Statistical differences between groups are based on linear mixed models with baseline values as covariates and adjustments for age, BMI and change in body fat. Pairwise comparisons were made using post hoc t-test on the linear mixed model with p-values adjusted for multiplicity.
