Table 4

Pearson’s correlations between changes in AF-DXA, AF-CT, ScF, VF, and WC.

	Delta AF-DXA	Delta AF-CT	Delta ScF	Delta VF	Delta WC
Delta AF-DXA	1
Delta AF-CT	0.74*	1
Delta ScF	0.74*	0.92*	1
Delta VF	0.51*	0.81*	0.51*	1

* 𝑃≤.01 by Pearson’s correlation coefficient.
AF-DXA: Abdominal Fat by DXA (kg); AF-CT: Abdominal Fat by CT (SAT+VAT) (cm²); ScF: Abdominal Subcutaneous Fat by CT scan (cm²); VF: Visceral Fat by CT scan (cm²); delta AF-DXA: (AF-DXA_{6 month}– AF-DXA_baseline); delta AF-CT: (AAT-CT_{6 month}– AAT-CT_baseline); delta ScF: (SAT_{6 month}– SAT_baseline); delta VF: (VAT_{6 month}– VAT_baseline); delta WC: (WC_{6 month}– WC_baseline)
