What it does not prove
- The abstract reports no actual results or effect sizes, so it cannot demonstrate whether the aquatic exercise intervention was effective
- The 6-week duration and single intervention site may not establish whether benefits persist beyond 1-month follow-up or generalize to other settings
- No sample size or attrition data are provided, limiting assessment of statistical power

Abstract or registry material supplied for assessment; source version 1. This is not a claim of full-text review.
This study aims to evaluate the effects of a 6-week supervised pool-based exercise program on muscle strength, muscle morphology, physical performance, mood, and quality of life in individuals aged 65 years and older with sarcopenia.
Assessments will be performed at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and at 1-month follow-up.
