Compliance markers in living kidney donors before and after the CCPR diet compared to the control group. (A) Levels of prealbumin were significantly decreased after the CCPR diet compared to the control group. (B) Retinol binding protein levels were also significantly decreased after the CCPR diet. (C) Absolute levels of the branched-chain amino acid leucine were decreased after the CCPR diet. (D) The absolute numbers of valine were also significantly decreased after the CCPR diet. Values are depicted as mean ± 95% confidence interval. * = P< 0.05; *** = P< 0.001; NS = not significant. CCPR = combined calorie and protein restriction.
