  1. Note. M = Mean; SD = Standard Deviation. Significant differences from initial visit to follow up visit are bolded. Descriptives obtained from baseline clinic data. One patient did not have height data to calculate BMI. aThe following were missing for health markers at the initial visit: AST, n = 8; ALT, n = 8; GGT, n = 21; LDL, n = 10; HDL, n = 9; Cholesterol, n = 9; Triglycerides, n = 9; Urine microalbumin, n = 15. The following were missing for health markers at follow-up: AST, n = 15; ALT, n = 15; GGT, n = 19; LDL, n = 19; HDL, n = 15; Cholesterol, n = 16; Triglycerides, n = 16; Urine microalbumin, n = 27. bData available for PHQ-9 for n = 19 patients at initial visit and n = 36 patients at follow up
