What happened
Trial registry update: NOT_YET_RECRUITING. No results reported in the supplied registry record.
Why it matters
Assessment pending; this report does not establish a change in evidence.
What it does NOT prove
- This abstract describes a planned study design and does not report any results, so it provides no evidence of efficacy or safety outcomes
- The non-inferiority design does not establish that either intervention improves sarcopenia; it only compares relative performance between two active treatments
- Results from the 6-month and 12-month assessments have not been provided, making it impossible to determine whether the study's objectives were met
