| Measure | Correlation, r | p value |
|---|---|---|
| Δ weight | −0.005 | 0.95 |
| Δ waist circumference | 0.02 | 0.81 |
| Δ BMI | 0.01 | 0.83 |
| Δ %body fat | −0.04 | 0.6 |
| Δ glucose | −0.17 | 0.04 |
| Δ insulin | 0.13 | 0.1 |
| Δ HbA1c | 0.01 | 0.89 |
| Δ HOMA-B | 0.23 | 0.005 |
| Δ HOMA-IS | −0.06 | 0.46 |
Note: BMI = body mass index; HbA1c = hemoglobin A1c; HOMA-B = homeostatic model assessment beta cell secretory capacity; HOMA-IS = homeostatic model assessment insulin sensitivity.
