Furthermore, although the difference between the groups did not reach statistical significance, the IL-6 plasma levels showed a trend reduction over time after the FS was administered (pre–post treatment 8.0 ± 1.73 pg/mL vs. 4.8 ± 1.20 pg/mL) but not after the placebo was administered (pre–post 5.6 ± 0.94 pg/mL vs. 5.01 ± 1.07 pg/mL).
In the longitudinal analysis for mortality risk, there was an inverse relationship, i.e., a higher tertile lifestyle pattern score was associated with a lower mortality risk, in which a significant result was observed in the high tertile of the exercise-sleep-social pattern score compared to the lowest tertile, yielding a 17% lower risk (HR: 0.83; 95% CI: 0.71, 0.98), with a significant trend across the tertiles ( p for trend = 0.025).
