Disproportional ventilatory response to incremental exercise in individuals with cerebral palsy

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 1139-1151, August 2026.
Individuals with cerebral palsy demonstrate a disproportionate ventilatory response during incremental exercise. Compared with typically developing peers, respiratory frequency increases earlier and at comparable exercise intensities, contributing to higher perceived exertion and reduced ventilatory efficiency. At task failure, respiratory frequency is
