Table 3. Analysis of the lipid profile.

	H (n = 6)	DM (n = 7)	ANP (n = 7)	p value
Total cholesterol (mg/dl)	38.44 (35.32–44.42)	38.61 (34.68–53.25)	35.65 (19.22–40.71)	0.203
Triglycerides (mg/dl)	79.28 ± 19.19	131.96 ±50.61	79.69 ± 27.61	0.020*
HDL (mg/dl)	28.82 ± 2.61	21.74 ± 4.76	24.33 ± 2.71	0.006*
LDL (mg/dl)	3.89 (0.97–12.38)	16.34 (2.13–27.01)	4.95 (0.73–7.44)	0.023*

A One-way ANOVA test was used for triglycerides and HDL. Kruskal-Wallis was used for total cholesterol and LDL. * denotes statistical significance. Bonferroni post hoc analysis for triglycerides: H versus DM p = 0.038; H versus ANP p = 1.000; DM versus ANP p = 0.039. Bonferroni post hoc analysis for HDL: H versus DM p = 0.005; H versus ANP p = 0.110; DM versus ANP p = 0.621. Mann-Whitney post hoc analysis for LDL: H versus DM p = 0.017; H versus ANP p = 0.731; DM versus ANP p = 0.022.
