EFFECT OF CREATINE SUPPLEMENTATION COMBINED WITH RESISTANCE TRAINING ON WHOLE BODY BONE MINERAL IN OLDER MEN
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The objective of the study was to determine the effect of creatine supplementation combined with resistance training on bone mass of older men. Twenty-nine men were randomized to receive creatine supplementation (CR, n = 16, age = 70.4y) or placebo (PL, n = 13, age = 71.6y) using a double blind procedure. Cr supplementation consisted of 0.3 g/kg body weight for 5 days and 0.07 g/kg body weight thereafter. Both groups participated in whole-body resistance training (12 weeks, 3x/wk, 3 sets of 10 reps, 12 exercises). Bone mass was assessed by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. There was a time main effect for whole body bone mineral density, with each group increasing by 0.5% (p = 0.05). There was a group × time interaction for bone mineral content of the arms (p = 0.0005), with the Cr group increasing by 3.2% (p = 0.0009) and the PL group decreasing by 1.0% (not significant). We conclude that 12 weeks of resistance training increases whole body bone mineral density and that creatine supplementation provides a further increase in bone mineral content.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
