PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Study Visit Week 4

Population: Samples not included were lost during tissue processing. Metabolic syndrome (n=10); Control (n=13)

We will take a muscle tissue sample from the subject's thigh (vastus lateralis) to quantify phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidylethanolamine ratio of the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Study visit week 4

Population: Oral glucose tolerance tests were performed on 15 controls and 11 metabolic syndrome participants. The insulin data was lost for one metabolic syndrome participant.

The homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) is a calculated value using fasting glucose and insulin levels. It provides a measure of insulin resistance. HOMA-IR values between 0.5 and 1.4 are considered normal and values \>2.9 indicate insulin resistance. The Matsuda Index reflects insulin sensitivity. It is calculated from glucose and insulin levels drawn fasting and during an OGTT. Matsuda Index values of 2.5 or higher are normal and indicate lack of insulin resistance or normal insulin sensitivity. Results of these measures are displayed graphically in the published paper.
