V. A. Likhodeeva, A. A. Spasov, I. B. Isupov, V. B. Mandrikov · 2011 · Vestnik Novykh Meditsinskikh Tekhnologii. 2011;18(1):150–153
What does this source report?
Four-week report evaluated cerebral and systemic hemodynamics and biochemical measures in young swimmers. The methods describe control, placebo and active-treatment comparisons.
- Population and setting
- 48 male swimmers aged 10–12 reported overall; subgroup denominator reconciliation remains open
- Evidence type
- Human comparative study
- Preparation
- See the original report; formulation details require verification.
- Source language
- Russian
- Title provenance
- Title as recorded in the linked source or index. A separate original-language title has not been transcribed unless shown above.
What are the limitations?
- The allocation passage lists groups of six while the overall sample is 48; do not infer a simple 16/16/16 split.
- Blinding, outcome multiplicity and overlap with other swimmer reports remain unresolved.
- Pediatric hemodynamic outcomes do not establish adult cognitive or occupational benefit.
Publication counts are not counts of independent trials. Reviews, translations and reports sharing participants may overlap. Findings apply to the studied preparation, population and endpoints.
