What it does not prove

  • This is a protocol paper describing planned methods, not a results paper—no efficacy or safety data are presented. The feasibility trial was designed to assess attendance and tolerability rather than to measure clinical outcomes. Sample size and statistical power are not reported, limiting any inference about effectiveness of exercise on muscle mass, strength, quality of life, or chemotherapy delivery.

Extracted from supplied source material; model confidence is not a measured probability of correctness.
