^aIndicates a significant pairwise change from baseline
^bIndicates a significant main effect
^cIndicates a significant group x time interaction
^dIndicates raw data that met parametric assumptions and did not require Lg10 transformation
hs-CRP was only measured at baseline, sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 were only measured at baseline and 4 h. All data are presented as mean ± SD. Significance set at (p < 0.05)
