Anthropometric and clinical characteristic at baseline (T0) and after HNT (T1). Results are expressed as the median, minimum, and maximum for each parameter. A paired -test (a) or a nonparametric Wilcoxon test (b) was performed to evaluate differences before and after hazelnut intervention. All tests were considered significant at . SBP: systolic blood pressure; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; TBFat: total body fat; ABFat: android body fat; GBFat: gynoid body fat; TBLean: total body lean; BMC: bone mineral content; ASMMI: appendicular skeletal muscle mass index; TC: total cholesterol; HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; Tg: triglycerides; NLR: neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio; PLR: platelet-lymphocyte ratio.
