^*p < 0.05, statistically significant difference; these data were analyzed using Kruskal–Wallis H-test; pairwise analysis was performed using Mann–Whitney U-test for independent samples with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons for the rest of the variables; Me [Q1; Q3], median and quartiles (first and third); BMI, body mass index; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
