¹ Values are mean ± SD, n = 30. ² Significance was determined by paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed rank test for non-normally distributed variables. Abbreviations: ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate transaminase; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; HOMA-IR, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance; hsCRP, high sensitivity C-reactive protein; IDL, intermediate-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; VLDL, very low-density lipoprotein.
