SMM, skeletal muscle mass; CON, control; CRY, cryotherapy. CI, 90% confidence interval. All data are percentages, with the exception of baseline values express measurement units. aAdjusted to overall mean of in baseline CON and CRY group. bAdjusted mean change of CRY group minus adjusted mean CON group. cMagnitude thresholds (for difference in means divided by SD of CRY group): <0.20, trivial; 0.20–0.59, small; 0.60–1.19, moderate.
