Outcomes
SECONDARY
The primary outcome was the PE incidence (%). The secondary outcomes included systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels (mmHg), changes in glycated haemoglobin (%), total cholesterol (mg/dl), LDL-c (mg/dl), HDL-c (mg/dl), triglycerides (mg/dl), CRP (mg/dl) and glutathione peroxidase (μmol/l). All secondary outcomes were compared between study groups (inter-group analysis) and were also compared within each group (intra-group analysis) and considered the means or medians variations between baseline and post-intervention.
