Changes in body weight according to study group. Each
data point represents the mean value for all participants examined at that
time. The number of participants decreased over time because of the
variable length of time that persons were in the study. For example, data
on weight were available for 3085 persons at 0.5 year, 3064 at 1 year,
2887 at 2 years, and 1510 at 3 years. Changes in weight and leisure
physical activity over time differed significantly among the treatment
groups (P<0.001 for each comparison). |
