a All values represent mean ± SD. b Significance set at p < 0.05. c Regression models for anthropometric outcomes adjusted for age, sex, race and ethnicity, free/reduced-price school meal participation, school site, breakfast location, physical activity, baseline measure, and BMI z-score (for blood pressure models only). d Regression models for metabolic parameters adjusted for age, sex, race and ethnicity, free/reduced-price school meal participation status, school site, breakfast location, physical activity, baseline measure, and BMI z-score. e To convert mg/dL glucose to mmol/L, multiply mg/dL by 0.0555. f To convert µIU/mL insulin to pmol/L, multiple µIU/mL by 6.945. g HOMA-IR: homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance. h To convert mg/dL cholesterol to mmol/L, multiply mg/dL by 0.0259. i To convert mg/dL triglycerides to mmol/L, multiply by mg/dL by 0.0113.
