Right. A 73% increase from the time of treatment, which is a lot of hand-waving, and overall a 14% increase, which is good but not spectacular.
āTreatment of old frail male mice with OT+A5i resulted in a remarkable 73 per cent life extension from that time, and a 14 per cent increase in the overall median lifespan,ā researchers wrote.
