Figure 1 CONSORT diagram of participant inclusion through the clinical study The ATLAS study was a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled interventional clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03464500) performed in untrained, overweight, middle-aged subjects (n = 88). Subjects (253) were screened during the course of the study from a single study site. From these, eighty-eight participants that met the study inclusion and exclusion criteria were randomized in the trial. Subjects were randomized to either placebo (n = 29) or 500 (n = 29) or 1,000 mg (n = 30) doses of UA intervention. The total study duration was 4 months. Nine subjects did not complete the study (n = 9 dropouts), whereas seventy-nine (n = 79) subjects successfully completed the trial duration. All randomized subjects were included in the intent-to-treat (ITT) study population (i.e., study population consisting of all randomized participants). Dietary recall questionnaires revealed no major changes in diet during the course of the study, and the subjects did not receive any additional exercise regimen. Five subjects with low compliance were excluded from the per-protocol (PP) population (n = 74; i.e., including participants with >80% compliance and completing all study visits).

Figure 2 Urolithin A oral administration significantly improves leg muscle strength and impacts aerobic endurance in middle-aged adults (A) At baseline and end-of-study visits, maximum strength values were calculated as the mean of the five peak torque scores (five reciprocal concentric isokinetic contractions with maximum effort) in nm for hamstring and as the one maximum score in nm for knee flexion. (B) UA significantly improved hamstring leg muscle strength at both doses (p = 0.027 compared with placebo for 500 mg UA dose; p = 0.029 compared with placebo for 1,000 mg dose). (C) Hand-grip strength was evaluated via hand-held dynamometry (5.1% improvement from baseline in 1,000 mg UA dose, p = 0.08). (D) UA 1,000 mg supplementation led to significant within-group (p < 0.01; p = 0.058 compared with placebo) increases in peak VO2. (E) UA-supplemented groups showed non-significant increases of ∼4% increase in peak power output from baseline. (F) UA 1,000 mg dose group showed a significant within-group increase from baseline in walking distance during the 6MWT at the end-of-study visit (p ≤ 0.008).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
