C6, control diet for 6 weeks; HSF6, high-sugar/fat diet for 6 weeks; C12, control diet for 12 weeks; HSF12, high-sugar/fat diet for 12 weeks; C24, control diet for 24 weeks; HSF24, high-sugar/fat diet for 24 weeks; HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment.

A,B Mean values within a row with unlike uppercase letters were significantly different among the C groups (6 v. 12 v. 24 weeks) (P < 0·05).

a,b Mean values within a row with unlike lowercase letters were significantly different among the HSF groups (6 v. 12 v. 24 weeks) (P < 0·05).

* Mean value was significantly different from that for the C group at the same time point (P < 0·05).

† Comparisons among groups were performed using two-way ANOVA for independent groups and were completed using Tukey's post hoc test.
