Vitamin D Status Is Not Associated with Outcomes of Experimentally-Induced Muscle Weakness and Pain in Young, Healthy Volunteers

Figure 1

Progress of pain intensity throughout the study period. Mean (±SE) of pain intensity ratings (scale 0–100) during unloaded movement through full range of motion of the elbow. Time after EE refers to time elapsed after the eccentric exercise protocol, during which muscle damage was induced. Pain intensity rating was one of two distinct pain outcomes. The other, pain unpleasantness rating, followed a similar pattern following the eccentric exercise protocol. Males: 𝑁 = 2 6 (baseline), 𝑁 = 2 7 (all other times); females: 𝑁 = 2 0 (4 days), 𝑁 = 2 1 (all other times).
