The study was undertaken to compare transesophageal left atrial pacing (TLAP) and bicycle ergometry (BE) in the detection of residual myocardial ischemia (RMI) in 187 patients with myocardial infarction in the early periods of the disease (on days 20 to 26). The intensity of TLAP and BE was increased up to the threshold and submaximal levels according to the conventional criteria. Among the patients, RMI was detected in 71% with TLAP and in 55% with BE (p less than greater than 0.01). Thus, this suggests that TLAP has advantages over BE in the detection of RMI in patients with myocardial infarction in the early periods of the disease.

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by airway inflammation, airflow limitation, reduced health-related quality of life (HRQL), and exercise intolerance. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is essential for COPD management, but outcomes may be influenced by individual physiological factors. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) measures oxygen pulse (O2P), an indicator of stroke volume, yet the impact of baseline O2P on PR effectiveness remains unclear.

Center for Research and Education in Special Environments, Department of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY, United States of America.

Objective: This study compared the effects of two different warm-up protocols (normal vs. priming) on the oxygen plateau ([Formula: see text]) incidence rate during a ramp test. It also compared the cardiopulmonary responses during the ramp test and subsequent verification phase.

Background: Effective nutritional support is essential for maintaining good performance during exercise. Taste and olfaction are key senses for food intake, and understanding how their sensitivities change during exercise is important for effective nutritional support. However, the effects of exercise on taste and odor sensitivities remain unclear.

Sympathetic Response to 1-Leg Cycling Exercise Predicts Exercise Capacity in Patients With Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction.

Circ Heart Fail

University Health Network and Sinai Health, Department of Medicine (M.B.B., T.T., C.F.N., E.K., M.N., D.Z.C., S.M., J.S.F.), University of Toronto, ON, Canada.

Background: In heart failure, sympathetic excess and exercise intolerance impair quality of life. In heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, exercise stimulates a reflex increase in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) that relates inversely to peak oxygen uptake (V̇O). Whether similar sympathoexcitatory responses are present in heart failure with preserved EF (HFpEF) and relate to V̇O are unknown.
