CRP C-Reactive Protein (reference value 0–5 mg/L), Alb Albumin (reference value < 35 g/L);), IGF-1 Insulin Growth Factor-1 (reference value 21–206 μg/L for females ≥ 75 yr; 22–204 μg/L for males ≥ 75 yr), TAA Total Amino Acid (n = 23); EAA Essential Amino Acid (histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine), BCAA Branched-Chain Amino Acid (isoleucine, leucine, valine), Collagen-peptide derived AA Collagen-peptide derived Amino Acid (glycine, hydroxyproline, proline). Parametric variables are presented as mean (SD standard deviation) and tested with paired t-test. Non-parametric variables are presented as median [IQR 25-75th interquartile range] and tested with Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank test.
P < .05 is considered significant
