Table 1.

Statistical analysis for the normally distributed weight change performed using a 2-sided 1-sample t test*

Variable n Minimum Median Maximum Mean SD
BMI 439 18.6 25.1 48.7 26.0 4.8
Last_BMI 16.6 25.7 45.2 26.3 4.8
BMI_Increase_Percent 438 −43.5 0.8 47.4 1.3 7.9

*Mean and median change in weight were less than 1.5% and insignificant (P < .05) for the group and when stratified by years of follow-up. Contrary to our hypothesis, the mean and the median change in weight were insignificant. BMI indicates body mass index.
