*OR and 95% CI, estimated with mixed-effects models, presents the likelihood of achieving target goal among intervention participants compared with control participants at study end.

†χ2 tests for categorical variables between intervention and control groups.

BMI, body mass index; BP, blood pressure; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein.
