MEASURED OUTCOMEDefinition: sourced draft

Muscle creatine stores

The measured concentration of total creatine in skeletal muscle. Tissue concentration is a biochemical outcome, not a subjective benefit score.

Findings in context

1 observations

Measured endpoints are tied to a particular task, population, and exposure. A finding cannot be generalized to a different outcome without supporting evidence.
