Are there any studies showing that Type II collagen pills do anything?

I've seen lots of studies about Types 1 and 3.

 

I've seen lots of studies about UC-II, undenatured collagen type II.

 

I am specifically referencing collagen type II (the one dosed in 2.5g on average, not UC-II which is dosed at 40mg on average).

 

I reference pills because collagen type 2 powder usually doesn't exist. Although some companies mix it in wither other kinds, it's usually pills. For example Neocell makes pills.

 

Do you know of any studies that show that collagen type 2 does something useful or harmful?

Has any of those hydrolyzed collagen type products been compared to plain gelatin in double blind studies, to prove they perform better than gelatin for skin health, arthritis or joint pain?

Study on Fortigel and ligaments and cartilage:

Double blind study on Verisol and skin:

 

https://pubmed.ncbi....h.gov/24401291/

 

Same kind of study for UCII (not the kind I'm asking about):

 

https://www.ncbi.nlm...les/PMC8308696/

 

Similar study on hydrolyzed type 2 chicken collagen (I think this possibly is what I'm questioning in this thread, I think hydrolyzed is not UC II, because UC means undenatured collagen).
