Journal ArticleDOI

A phase IIA randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to study the efficacy and safety of the selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), MK-0773 in female participants with sarcopenia.

TL;DR: The MK-0773-induced increase in LBM did not translate to improvement in strength or function vs. placebo, and the improvement of strength and physical function in the placebo group could be at least partly attributed to protein and vitamin D supplementation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance-based or self-report measures of physical function: which should be used in clinical trials of hip fracture patients?
