4.5. Statistical Analyses

The data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation, and were analyzed using commercial software (JMP Pro 14.1; SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA). The time-course change for each parameter was statistically evaluated using the one-way ANOVA test. We examined the data to confirm the normality of the data distribution using the Shapiro–Wilk test prior to the ANOVA test (JMP Pro 14.1; SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA). p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Next, we calculated the correlation coefficients among changes in BW, FBS, HbA1c and eating behavior 3 and 6 months after semaglutide treatment by simple regression analyses. Finally, multiple regression analyses were conducted for changes in HbA1c as a dependent variable, and changes in eating behaviors as independent variables.
