Data shown are n (%) for all categorical variables and mean (SD) for all quantitative traits except triglycerides and fasting insulin, which are presented as median (interquartile range). Following implementation of the IPW, the demographic characteristics of the DPP were restored in the IPW metabolite profiling subcohort and were balanced across treatment groups, except for sex and BMI.
