  • “The pro-inflammatory marker, IL-6, demonstrated time (F(1,7) = 21.412, p < 0.001), group (F(1,2) = 4.722, p = 0.047), and interaction effects (F(1,7) = 2.803, p < 0.016) with lower values present in the MC vs. PLA group immediately following trial 2 (2.03 pg·mL−1) and trial 3 (1.63 pg·mL−1) (F(1,7) = 2.803, p < 0.05).”
    Population
    Trained cyclists completing three days of simulated high-intensity stochastic road cycling; blood sampled pre- and post-trial; lower values reported after trials 2 and 3
  • “Significant time (F(1,7) = 7.467, p < 0.001), group (F(1,2) = 4.726, p = 0.047) and interaction (F(1,7) = 2.534, p = 0.026) effects were also found for hsCRP, which was lower in the MC group across all time-points after baseline.”
    Population
    Trained cyclists completing three days of simulated high-intensity stochastic road cycling; lower across all time-points after baseline
