From: Abdominal obesity in COPD is associated with specific metabolic and functional phenotypes
Values are estimated mean [95% CI] (a, b) or Ln(value) with regression line [95% CI] (c). P-values are effects of COPD, AO, or COPD*AO from the ANCOVA model. The model for panel (c) additionally included plasma leucine concentration. Difference in the slopes were tested, if no difference a shared slope was applied. Interaction effects were tested for all variables with only significant effects being included, P < 0.05. Multiple comparisons are displayed with letters, same letters meaning no difference, q < 0.05. a Plasma leucine concentration; C: P = 0.2029, AO: P < 0.001. b Leucine whole body production; C: P = 0.0616, AO: P = 0.2765. c Leucine clearance; C: P = 0.0328, AO P = 0.4927
