Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1: Both treatments (JI x REC) were expected to promote a significant reduction in weight, body mass index (BMI), body fat and waist circumference (WC), which were verified using the octapolar bioimpedance scale, inelastic tape and stadiometer. ;Observed outcome 1: In both treatments there was a significant reduction in weight, BMI, body fat% and WC evaluated by the Student's t test paired at the 5% significance level ;Expected outcome 2: Both treatments (JI x REC) were expected to promote a significant reduction of total cholesterol, LDL and triglycerides. Reduction of leptin, insulinemia and fasting glucose and increase in cortisol. Biochemical examinations were performed in a private clinical analysis laboratory, which is the reference laboratory for the municipality and region. The effects of the two treatments were expected to be similar.;Observed outcome 2: A significant reduction in total cholesterol, triglycerides and leptin was observed in the JI group and in the REC group a significant reduction was observed only in fasting insulin in the group. Serum cortisol increased significantly only in the REC group. To determine whether the reduction or increase in the evaluated parameters was significant, the paired Student's t test was applied at a significance level of 5%. | — |

|---|---|
| change in fat-free mass, skeletal mucus mass and body water content. bioimpedance method using an octapolar device was used to determine the subjects' body composition.;Secondary outcome 1: the body water content of the patients was determined by the octapolar electrical bioimpedance method. There was a significant reduction in water content, measured in kg, body only in the REC group. To determine whether the reduction or increase in the assessed parameters was significant, the Student's t-test paired at a 5% significance level was applied. | — |
