Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is associated with symptoms of dyspnea and fatigue, which contribute to exercise limitation. The origins and significance of dyspnea and fatigue in PAH are not completely understood. This has created un...
Test-Retest Reliability and Physiological Responses Associated with the Steep Ramp Anaerobic Test in Patients with COPD [0.03%]
慢性阻塞性肺疾病患者的陡坡无氧试验的重测信度和生理反应分析

Robyn L Chura et al.
The Steep Ramp Anaerobic Test (SRAT) was developed as a clinical test of anaerobic leg muscle function for use in determining anaerobic power and in prescribing high-intensity interval exercise in patients with chronic heart failure and Chr...
Low Vital Capacity and Electrocardiographic ST-T Abnormalities in Asymptomatic Adults [0.03%]
无症状成人低肺活量与心电图ST-T段异常的关系
Kei Nakajima,Yulan Li,Hiroshi Fuchigami et al.
Kei Nakajima et al.
Studies have shown that low forced vital capacity (LFVC) is associated with atherosclerosis. However, it is unclear whether LFVC is associated with resting electrocardiographic ST-T abnormalities, a common finding that is prognostic for car...
Validity of reporting oxygen uptake efficiency slope from submaximal exercise using respiratory exchange ratio as secondary criterion [0.03%]
采用呼吸商作为次要标准的亚极量运动时报告摄氧效率斜率的有效性
Wilby Williamson,Jonathan Fuld,Kate Westgate et al.
Wilby Williamson et al.
Background. Oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) is a reproducible, objective marker of cardiopulmonary function. OUES is reported as being relatively independent of exercise intensity. Practical guidance and criteria for reporting OUES fr...
