Research
Hormonal
Serum hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) increased at T4, indicating its role in muscle satellite cell activation.
Increased HGF levels post-exercise may be leveraged to enhance muscle recovery strategies.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Serum HGF increased at T4 (p < 0.05).
Why this rating
The study measured serum levels and provided statistical significance.
