Note:
a
Effect sizes follow the convention for Cohen's d and measure the strength of the covariate-adjusted mean change between each time point and baseline;
b
More people were in the healthy range in Week 12 than in Week 6, but the percentage is lower - this was due to availability of data for 43 subjects at Week 6 and 45 in Week 12.
*
Significant change from baseline after applying Bonferroni correction. No significant between-group differences were found.
