Analyzing the entire cohort, we found no significant effects of DEX on blood count, renal function, or serum lipid profiles. However, a lower HOMA-\u03b2 index in the DEX-treated individuals (U\u2005=\u2005893.0; P\u2005=\u20050.049) was observed. Post hoc analyses revealed an effect in girls (U\u2005=\u2005152.5; P\u2005=\u20050.024) but not in boys (U\u2005=\u2005299.5; P\u2005=\u20050.550). The effect on HOMA-\u03b2 persisted (U\u2005=\u2005117.5; P\u2005=\u20050.048) after analyzing data separately in the participants &amp;lt; 16 years of age. In addition, we observed higher plasma glucose levels (F =\u200514.6; P\u2005=\u20050.001) in the DEX-treated group. The participants \u2265 16 years of age in the DEX-treated group had significantly higher total plasma cholesterol (F =\u20059.8; P\u2005=\u20050.003) and higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol
