a
Estimates for body weight and BMI were calculated using MNAR procedure in which participants lost to follow-up were assumed to have regained 0.3 kg per month since leaving the study. Estimates for other outcomes were completed using a MNAR procedure that corresponded to setting a sensitivity parameter equal to a value consistent with a baseline carried forward type of analysis.
b
P<0.05 (Bonferroni adjusted) for the between-group comparison vs. the control group.
c
P<0.01 (Bonferroni adjusted) for the within-group change from Month 6 to 18.
d
P<0.05 (Bonferroni adjusted) for the within-group change from Month 6 to 18.
