Submaximal 2‐day cardiopulmonary exercise testing to assess exercise capacity and post‐exertional symptom exacerbation in people with long COVID

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long COVID has a complex pathology and a heterogeneous symptom profile that impacts quality of life and functional status. Post‐exertional symptom exacerbation (PESE) affects one‐third of people living with long COVID, but the physiological basis of impaired physical function remains poorly understood. Sixty‐eight people (age (mean ± SD): 50 ±

Physical exercise intervention in glycogen storage disease IIIa: Feasibility and multisystem benefits

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Glycogen storage disease III (GSD‐III) is caused by an inherited deficiency of the glycogen debranching enzyme. Affecting the liver, muscle and heart, GSD‐IIIa is the most common GSD‐III subtype. We evaluated the feasibility and safety of a physical exercise intervention in patients with GSD‐IIIa and its effects at the multisystem level.
