Patient outcomes by weight loss and diabetes duration: Frequency, remission rates, and HbA1C changes.

Groups	Classification based on weight loss and duration	Frequency (%)	Remission rate	HbA1C (% change)
Group 1	> 5% weight loss and ≤ 6 years diabetes duration	118 (12.1%)	65 (55.1%)	−17.6% (25.1)
Group 2	≤ 5% weight loss and ≤ 6 years diabetes duration	149 (15.2%)	62 (41.6%)	−13.7% (22.5)
Group 3	≤ 5% weight loss and > 6 years diabetes duration	323 (33%)	69 (21.4%)	−11.4% (19.8)
Group 4	> 5% weight loss and > 6 years diabetes duration	388 (39.7%)	73 (18.8%)	−11.1% (17.6)

Note: Data are presented as frequency and percentage; data for percentage HbA1C (glycated hemoglobin) change are presented as median and interquartile range.
