Change from screening visit to final run-in visit.

HbA1c sample size N=704 for randomized and N=145 for non-randomized for an overall N=849.

Only statistically significant variables are given; those tested but not significant were systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, LDL cholesterol, and liver function tests.
