In contrast , changes in fasting and @-h insulin ( -@ mUl ( -@ ) , P = @ and -@ , P = @ , respectively ) , homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance ( -@ , P = @ ) , total cholesterol ( -@ mmoll ( -@ ) , P = @ ) , low-density lipoprotein ( LDL ) cholesterol ( -@ mmoll ( -@ ) , P = @ ) and visceral fat area ( -@ cm ( @ ) , P = @ ) were significantly greater in the intervention than in control subjects .
