Fasting total cholesterol, HDL, LDL and triglyceride plasma concentrations at baseline and 6 months follow-up

	Baseline	6 months post DMR	p-value
Total cholesterol (mmol/l)	3.64 (3.34–4.89)	3.48 (3.18–3.97)	0.008
HDL (mmol/l)	1.21 (0.95–1.32)	1.15 (1.05–1.47)	0.103
LDL (mmol/l)	1.92 (1.49–2.30)	1.79 (1.49–2.08)	0.044
Triglycerides (mmol/l)	1.79 (1.15–2.66)	1.09 (0.91–1.89)	0.023

Data are expressed as median (Q1-Q3). Paired Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were used to compare measurements between baseline and 6 months

HDL high-density lipoprotein, LDL0 low-density lipoprotein
