Data description
Outcomes of the Study and associated data
Primary outcomes
- Change in insulin resistance, defined by the homeostasis model of assessment (HOMA) values
- Patient reported joint pain, measured by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis (WOMAC) Index pain subscale – B (WOMAC-B)
Associated data: HOMA insulin resistance, WOMAC-B
Secondary outcomes
- Anthropometry measured by stadiometer, digital scale, pelvimeter and callipers
- Glucoregulatory markers (glucose, insulin, HbA1c), measured from blood serum samples
- Lipids
- Blood pressure
- Inflammatory markers (C-reactive protein, tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF–a), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-2, IL-8, IL-1beta, IL-10 and IL-4) measured from blood serum samples.
- Pain on Visual Analogue Scale (VAS, 0=no pain, 10=worst imaginable pain)
- Satiety on VAS (0=extremely hungry, 10=extremely full)
- Analgesic medication use ( participant self-report diary)
Associated data: Anthropometric measurements, blood serum glucose, insulin, HbA1c, blood lipids, blood pressure, blood serum C-reactive protein, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-2, IL8, IL-1beta, IL-10, IL-4, pain on Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), satiety on VAS, self-reported analgesic medication use.
