- Values are means ± SE (baseline, normal distribution), medians with interquartile ranges in parentheses (baseline, skewed distribution) or least square means ± SE (change values). a,bMean values within a row with unlike superscript letters were significantly different (P < 0.05; ANCOVA followed by the least significant difference test). AANOVA F-test. BANCOVA with baseline values as a covariate. CCalculated according to the Friedewald formula. Data from participants with TG levels ≥4.52 mmol/L were excluded from the analyses.
