ADIPOQ and steatosis: Adiponectin increase at EOT correlated with improvement in IR (FIL, HOMA-IR), glycemic control (FG, Hb1Ac), lipid metabolism (TG and APO-B decrease, HDL-C increase), hs-CRP, aminotransferases, steatosis markers (GGT, CAPTM), with a larger effect size for high than for moderate increase (Supplementary Table 7, Fig. 4A–E).
