2 context sentences(design, population, supporting numbers)
This case report assessed quality of life, activities of daily living, motor symptoms, functional ability, neuromuscular parameters and mRNA expression of selected genes related to muscle protein synthesis and degradation in a patient with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA).
The patient underwent resistance training with instability devices (i.e., bosu, dyna disk, balance disk, Swiss ball) for six months twice a week.
This result measures the body's own MGF / PEG-MGF. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
