Table 7.

Estimated 3-year mean difference in change from baseline on total SPPB score in the three intervention groups compared with the control group (95% CI).

BMI, Body Mass Index; MMSE, Mini-Mental State Examination; SPPB, Short Physical Performance Battery. A positive value of change is in favor of the intervention, whereas a negative value is in favor of the placebo. DHA = docosahexaenoic acid. EPA = eicosapentaenoic acid. * Adjusted for multiple comparisons with the Hochberg procedure to account for the fact that three intervention groups were compared with the placebo group in each analysis; † Low concentrations of DHA and EPA were defined by the lowest quartile of DHA plus EPA percentage at baseline in the intention-to-treat population (i.e., 4.83); SD, Standard Deviation.
