  1. The correlations were calculated in different experimental phases and a combined experimental sample of two experimental groups. Results are based on a Pearson correlation test; * = significant difference between the FGF-21 and the specific indicator in the same row (P <0.05). No mark in the same row means there was not a significant difference between treatments (P >0.05)
