A multivariate analysis with generalized estimating equations was employed.*P < .05, **P < .01, ***P < .001. BMI, body mass index; GM, gastrocnemius muscle; M, month; ΔMC, changes in maximal circumference of the calf; Pre, preinjection; SF, subcutaneous fat; SM, soleus muscle; ΔttMC, changes in maximal circumference of the calf in the tiptoe position.
