Change in body composition after 6 weeks of twice-daily inhalation of formoterol (48 µg·day⁻¹) in endurance-trained males (n=16) and females (n=10) versus placebo (males n=15, females n=10). Pooled data from males and females are shown (all). a) Lean body mass; b) bodyweight; c) body fat mass; d) body fat percentage. Values are effect sizes compared with placebo with 95% confidence intervals. *: p<0.05 (different from placebo within-sex); ^#: p<0.05 (treatment×trial interaction effect).
