Table 2. Comparison of MetS profile among adult patients with T2D and MetS.

Measurements Control group (n = 18) Intervention group (n = 18) p value
WC, cm −0.41 (−1.0007, 0.196) 2.54 (1.8, 3.434) < 0.001
TAG, mg/dL −11.44 (−27.010, 4.121) 37.89 (25.711, 50.078) < 0.001
Cholesterol, mg/dL −10.53 (−19.457, −1.603)* 20.32 (12.019, 28.615) < 0.001

LDL-C, mg/dL −11.57 (−20.639, −2.509)* 10.46 (1.139, 19.779)* 0.001
SBP, mmHg −1.34 (3.604, 0.916) 7.50 (3.662, 11.338) < 0.001
DBP, mmHg −2.78 (−5.505, 0.051)* 2.78 (−0.761, 6.317) 0.013
FBS, mg/dL 2.78 (−3.518, 13.851) 43.55 (31.474, 55.637) < 0.001

Values are presented as mean difference (95% confidence interval). One-way repeated measures analysis of variance between and within the groups analyses were applied, followed by pairwise comparison with confidence interval adjustment. Mean difference have calculated follow as: value at baseline − value after 8 weeks of intervention.

MetS, metabolic syndrome; T2D, type 2 diabetes; WC, waist circumference; TAG, triglyceride; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; FBS, fasting blood sugar.

Asterisk significantly different by paired t-test between baseline and 8th week in the same intervention group, *p < 0.05; p < 0.01; p < 0.001.
