Metabolic adaptation
Total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and C-reactive protein levels significantly decreased in the A allele group after treatment with diet II.
Diet II may lead to improved lipid profiles in A allele carriers.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
In the A allele group, a significant decrease was detected in total cholesterol levels (-11.5 ± 20.1 mg/dL), low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (-13.2 ± 20.9 mg/dL) and c-reactive protein levels (-1.3 ± 3.8 mg/dL) secondary to weight loss after treatment with diet II.
Why this rating
Based on the prospective design with significant results.
