Correlation between minerals and other parameters after treatment

Mineral/parameter R P
Zn/BMI −0.51 <0.05
Zn/%FAT −0.49 <0.05
Zn/M 0.62 <0.01
Mg/%FAT −0.38 <0.05
Cu/TG 0.47 <0.05
ΔZn/Δ%FAT −0.38 <0.05
ΔZn/ΔM 0.80 <0.01

R—correlation coefficient, Δ—change of parameter during treatment, BMI—body mass index, FAT—fat content, TG—triglycerides, M—insulin sensitivity
