For each comparison and outcome, we report the number of patients, the values (mean and SD) at baseline and follow-up, the change from baseline, and the estimated treatment difference (ETD) with its standard error (SE), along with the respective p values. *p < 0.05 versus baseline; ^p < 0.001 versus baseline

SBP systolic blood pressure, FPG fasting plasma glucose, ITT intention to treat, AT as treated. The pooled ATD from the ten imputed dataset are presented
