While other fat-related indices, such as Body Fat Percentage (BFP), Visceral Fat Level (VFL) and Hip Circumference, showed decreasing trends in the UA881 group, these changes did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.520, p = 0.059 and p = 0.176, respectively).
Fecal butanoic acid showed an increasing trend, and gut microbiota alpha diversity was significantly improved.
