Values are expressed by mean ± SD or frequency. indicates difference between group 1 and group 2; group 2 and group 3; group 1 and group 3, respectively. The ANOVA test followed by post hoc test was used to test for significant differences. values are presented in the table.
hs-CRP: high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, sICAM-1: soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1, sVCAM-1: soluble vascular adhesion molecule 1, HbA1c: glycosylated hemoglobin, LDL: low-density lipoprotein, HDL: high-density lipoprotein, TG: triglycerides, and CHOL: total cholesterol.
