The median (IQR) for biological blood parameters in the test and placebo groups at baseline (T0), 4 (T1) and 12 (T2) months.

Values are presented as median (IQR).

IQR: interquartile range, HDL: high-density lipoprotein, LDL: low-density lipoprotein, VLDL: very-low-density lipoprotein, hs-CRP: high-sensitivity C-reactive protein.

No differences were found between the groups (Mann-Whitney U-test).

^*P<0.05 compared the changes (Δ) at T0-T1 and T0-T2 in test and placebo groups (Wilcoxon rank sum test).
