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 is a protocol or trial registration, not a results report—no efficacy findings are presented.
- The small sample size (9 per group) and multiple intervention arms limit statistical power to detect differences between groups.
- No follow-up data beyond 16 weeks; longer-term effects of combined resistance training and electrical stimulation remain unknown.
