Do mitochondrial effects translate into human performance?

Demonstrated findings

A randomized trial in older adults found improvements in muscle-endurance measures; between-group differences in the primary walking-distance and ATP-production endpoints were not significant.

What might this mean? · interpretation

Some functional signals are encouraging, with mixed results across endpoints.

What might this mean, and what would change the interpretation?

A selective positive endpoint cannot stand in for success across all outcomes or populations.

What would clarify this: Independent replication with prespecified functional endpoints.
