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 ±

Sex differences in the work of breathing during exercise are independent of forced vital capacity in healthy adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract During exercise, females have a higher work of breathing (ẆB) than males for a given minute ventilation (V̇E$ \dot {V}_{\text {E}}$) ≥ 50–60 L min−1, presumably due to sex differences in airway size. However, on average, males have greater forced vital capacity (FVC) than females, and the confounding effect of FVC on sex differences in ẆB is ...

Intermittent hand and forearm immersion in 20°C water attenuates thermal, cardiovascular, and perceptual strain in older adults during heat stress

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Adults >65 years of age experience deleterious health effects during extreme heat events at a greater rate than any other age cohort. The purpose of this study was to identify the effectiveness of acute intermittent hand and forearm (H+F) water immersion and/or chronic (7 week) folic acid supplementation on reducing thermal and cardiovascular ...

Ageing exacerbates the adverse effects of respiratory muscle fatigue on vascular function, locomotor muscle fatigue and exercise performance in males

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the effect of respiratory muscle fatigue on cardiovascular function, locomotor muscle fatigue and exercise performance in young and master athletes, a model of successful ageing. Ten young male (YA, 27.4 ± 4.4 years) and 11 male master endurance athletes (MA, 65.0 ± 5.1 years) performed, on separate days, two constant ...

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...
