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
- The abstract does not report actual results, so it is unclear whether HMB combined with exercise showed any benefit over exercise plus placebo
- The study design combines two interventions (HMB and structured exercise), making it impossible to isolate the effect of HMB supplementation alone
- No information is provided about effect sizes, statistical significance, or outcome data
