Δ – percentage change from baseline; SC – subcutaneous adipose tissue; IP – intraperitoneal adipose tissue; RP – retroperitoneal adipose tissue; Left RS - left renal sinus adipose tissue; Right RS – right renal sinus adipose tissue; sKIM-1 – serum kidney injury molecule-1; FGF-21 – fibroblast growth factor-21. The level of significance was set as p < 0.05.
