Table 1.
Demographic and clinical characteristics of fasting study participants at baseline and at 6 month of follow-up.
Fig 2.
For each clinical parameter, the patient’s value at baseline screening (time 1) is on the horizontal axis and the 6-month follow-up value (time 2) is on the vertical axis. The plotted line is the line of perfect agreement between times 1 and 2. Points below the line represent a decrease from time 1 to time 2, while points above the line represent an increase from time 1 to time 2.
Fig 3.
Regression analysis showing changes in clinical parameters vs. changes in PAM levels (n = 60).
For each clinical parameter the change in PAM level from baseline to 6 months is depicted on the horizontal axis and change in the clinical parameter from baseline to 6 months is depicted on the vertical axis. Reported values are Spearman’s rho (nonparametric correlation coefficient), and the corresponding p-value (calculated on original, not jittered values). A more sophisticated regression analysis adjusting for age, gender and baseline values had similar p-values and is not shown.
