Bar graphs of body composition parameters and MRE scores for all cases. Black bars represent baseline data, and grey bars represent follow-up data. a Area of skeletal muscle, SAT, and VAT at baseline and follow up; b Value of SMI, SAI, and VAI at baseline and follow up; c Value of SMIspinal, SAIspinal, and VAIspinal at baseline and follow up; d Value of VA/TA index at baseline and follow up; e MRE scores of small bowel and colorectum at baseline and follow up. ***: p < 0.001, **: p < 0.01, *: p < 0.05, ns: p > 0.05 (not significant); SAT: subcutaneous adipose tissue, VAT: visceral adipose tissue, SMI, skeletal muscle index; SAI, subcutaneous adipose index; VAI, visceral adipose index; SMIspinal, skeletal muscle area normalized by lumbar spinal height2; SAIspinal, subcutaneous adipose tissue area divided by lumbar spinal height2; VAIspinal, visceral adipose tissue area divided by lumbar spinal height2; ns, no significant difference; VA/TA index, VAT to total adipose tissue ratio
