Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation or percent changes after the treatment. Clinical and laboratory parameters in the subgroup whose LDL-C was increased or decreased by dapagliflozin treatment were analyzed

BW body weight, AST aspartate aminotransferase, ALT alanine aminotransferase, γGTP γ-glutamyltranspeptidase, BUN blood urea nitrogen, Cre creatinine, FPG fasting plasma glucose, LDL-C low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol
