There are strong and recent evidences of the phenomena of muscle hyperplasia in Humans or Animals following eccentric exercise/dynamic stretch?
Those are the evidences which, in my opinion, better answer to the question, but they became old:

Hyperplasia or hypertrophy are still controversial. However, some studies as noted above show that Hyperplasia was achieved.Difficult to disprove what is on the table.
Dear colleagues,
the muscle hyperplasia in humans is a very controversial theme.
I think that is too early for get a conclusion about that.
We need more, and more consistent, investigations to confirm the muscle hyperplasia in humans.
This is my opinion.
