Purpose: The deflection of the HR performance curve (HRPC) has been described as an objective marker of submaximal exercise performance. HR response to incremental cycle ergometer exercise is shown to be neither linear nor uniform and a physiological explanation of the deflection phenomenon is lacking. We hypothesized that differences in the beta1-adrenoceptor site are the source of these differences. The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of the highly selective beta1-adrenoceptor (beta1-AR) antagonist bisoprolol (Bi) on the HRPC in young healthy male subjects with different HR response patterns.
Methods: Sixteen subjects were treated in randomized order with Bi or a placebo (Pl) in two separate trials. HR response during incremental cycle ergometer exercise was compared between the two trials. Blood lactate concentration (La) and ventilatory variables were measured throughout both tests.
Results: Bi changed the direction of the HRPC more in subjects with a regular, s-shaped response pattern under placebo than those with a nonregular or linear pattern. The influence of Bi on the HR at the second lactate turn point was significantly related (R = 0.78; P < 0.001) to the pattern of the HRPC in Pl conditions.
Conclusion: We suggest that differences between the subjects with regular s-shaped versus nonregular HRPC may be due to differences at the beta1-AR site. The origin of the HRPC deflection is mediated in part by the beta1-AR sensitivity.

Background: Prior research indicates a potential link between dyslipidemia and endometriosis (EMs). However, the relationship between remnant cholesterol (RC) and EMs has not been thoroughly investigated. Consequently, looking into and clarifying the connection between RC and EMs was the primary goal of this study.

This study explores the association between serum chloride concentrations and all-cause mortality among patients in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU). Employing a retrospective cohort design, the study utilized data extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database, specifically focusing on individuals admitted to the surgical/trauma ICUs. This dataset encompassed demographic profiles, laboratory findings, historical medical data, vital statistics, and variables pertinent to prognosis.

Background: Family income to poverty ratio (PIR) may have independent effects on diet and lifestyle factors and the development of prediabetes and diabetes, as well as on mortality. It is unclear how the protective effect of a healthy lifestyle against death differs between individuals with different glucose metabolic profiles and whether PIR mediates this effect. This study aimed to explore whether healthy lifestyle and family PIR reduced the risk of all-cause mortality in participants with different metabolic status and the mediating role of PIR.

Purpose: The weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) is a novel anthropometric measure. WWI is linked to reduced muscle mass and strength; however, its efficacy for assessing sarcopenia and predicting adverse outcomes has yet to be validated. This study compared and examined the relationship between sarcopenia and WWI across different diagnostic criteria and aimed to evaluate its potential as a predictor of sarcopenia and all-cause mortality.
