Figure 3. The effect of energy reduction and calcium supplementation on serum calcium, serum 25(OH)D3 adjusted for age, gender, smoking, drinking, regular exercise, and BMI. (A) Comparison of serum calcium changes between ERGs and NERGs. (B) Comparison of serum calcium changes between CSGs and NCSGs. (C) Comparison of serum calcium changes among CG, ERG, CSG, and ER-CSG. (D) Comparison of serum 25(OH)D3 changes between ERGs and NERGs. (E) Comparison of serum 25(OH)D3 changes between CSGs and NCSGs. (F) Comparison of serum 25(OH)D3 changes among CG, ERG, CSG, and ER-CSG. Note: P-value for the difference in the joint effect of intervention and time.
