Oxygen Uptake Efficiency Slope in South American Healthy Adults COMPREHENSIVE REFERENCE VALUES AND INTERNATIONAL COMPARISONS Hasselt University
Validation of a single-stage fixed-rate step test for the prediction of maximal oxygen uptake in healthy adults Hasselt University
Ischaemic preconditioning blunts exercise-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, speeds oxygen uptake kinetics but does not alter severe-intensity exercise capacity Vrije Universiteit Brussel
NEW FINDINGS: What is the central question of this study? Ischaemic preconditioning is a novel pre-exercise priming strategy. We asked whether ischaemic preconditioning would alter mitochondrial respiratory function and pulmonary oxygen uptake kinetics and improve severe-intensity exercise performance. What is the main finding and its importance? Ischaemic preconditioning expedited overall pulmonary oxygen uptake kinetics and appeared to ...
The oxygen uptake response to incremental ramp exercise : methodological and physiological issues Ghent University
Plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine concentrations are not related to differences in maximal oxygen uptake in endurance trained and untrained men Vrije Universiteit Brussel
NEW FINDINGS: What is the central question of this study? Is there an association of plasma concentration of asymmetric dimethylarginine, which is related to exercise capacity in patients with cardiovascular diseases, with oxygen delivery and subsequently exercise capacity in healthy subjects in the absence of the potentially confounding influence of inflammation and oxidative stress? What is the main finding and its importance? Plasma ...
