Linear mixed model was used to estimate the group differences at baseline and the end of study. In model 1, group of participants, visit, and group*visit are treated as fixed effects and subject as random effect. Model 2 is based on model 1 plus age of participants, gender, education, smoking status, alcoholic drinking status, health condition and life style. CI: Confidence Interval.
