Effects of 20% and 40% energy deficits induced by calorie restriction (CR) and exercise (EX) on the relative distribution (% of total particles) of plasma lipoproteins. Data are mean ± SEM for n = 19 (CR group) and n = 13 (EX group). * The value is significantly different from the corresponding value in the control trial, p ≤ 0.05. Abbreviations: VLDL, very low-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; HDL, high-density lipoprotein.
