Data are presented as adjusted mean (SE) and adjusted mean difference (95% CI). P-values for between-group comparisons were obtained using analysis of covariance

SE standard error, CI confidence interval, Δ amount of change from baseline to 24 weeks, BMI body mass index, HbA1c glycated hemoglobin, NGSP National Glycohemoglobin Standardization Program, HDL high-density lipoprotein, LDL low-density lipoprotein, AST aspartate aminotransferase, ALT alanine aminotransferase, UA uric acid, BUN blood urea nitrogen, eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate, SD standard deviation, CV coefficient of variation, MAGE mean amplitude of glycemic excursion, CONGA continuous overall net glycemic action, NA not applicable

aVariables with skewed distributions were performed log-transformed and were analyzed using log-transformed data
