|---|---|---|---|---|
| Collagen Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Risk of bias was assessed using the PEDro scale (≥6/10 classified as good-to-excellent quality). | 1 | Buchalski A (2026) | Collagen Supplementation on Tendon-Related Structural and Performance Outcomes: A Systematic Review. |
| Collagen Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Muscle strength improved with training in all trials, but no additive effects of collagen were observed. | 1 | Buchalski A (2026) | Collagen Supplementation on Tendon-Related Structural and Performance Outcomes: A Systematic Review. |
| Collagen Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | The current literature suggests strong evidence (GRADE A) for increases in tendon CSA and stiffness, strong evidence (GRADE A) against an effect on muscle strength, and conflicting evidence (GRADE C) for muscle cross-sectional area and physical performance. | 1 | Buchalski A (2026) | Collagen Supplementation on Tendon-Related Structural and Performance Outcomes: A Systematic Review. |
| Collagen Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Background: Tendons adapt to mechanical loading by increasing cross-sectional area (CSA), stiffness, and matrix organization, with structural remodeling critical for both rehabilitation and performance. | 1 | Buchalski A (2026) | Collagen Supplementation on Tendon-Related Structural and Performance Outcomes: A Systematic Review. |
| Collagen Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Background A growing body of evidence supports the use of supplements to enhance cycling performance through both direct and indirect mechanisms. | 3 | Rowland A (2026) | A comprehensive review of the physiology and evidence base to guide the use of ergogenic and medical supplements for enhanced cycling performance. |
| Collagen Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Evidence-based options for cyclists include calcium, cherry juice, collagen, curcumin, iron, multivitamins, omega-3 fatty acids, pickle juice, probiotics, protein, vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc. | 3 | Rowland A (2026) | A comprehensive review of the physiology and evidence base to guide the use of ergogenic and medical supplements for enhanced cycling performance. |
| Collagen Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Each contribute to either improved recovery, immune support or long-term physiological adaptation. | 3 | Rowland A (2026) | A comprehensive review of the physiology and evidence base to guide the use of ergogenic and medical supplements for enhanced cycling performance. |
| Collagen Exercise Recovery Meta-Analysis | Methods This review was informed by a structured literature search conducted in PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science for peer-reviewed studies published up to May 2025. | 3 | Rowland A (2026) | A comprehensive review of the physiology and evidence base to guide the use of ergogenic and medical supplements for enhanced cycling performance. |
