Background: Peak oxygen uptake (VO) is considered the most important indicator of aerobic exercise capacity during cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET). However, its accuracy is compromised when maximal effort is not achieved. In such cases, submaximal parameters can serve as surrogates for assessing exercise performance.

Background: Given the high prevalence of stage A or B heart failure (HF), comprehensive screening for new-onset HF is cost-prohibitive. Therefore, further risk stratification is warranted to identify at-risk patients. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic utility of cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) with bicycle stress echocardiography (BSE) in patients with stage A or B HF.

Sprint interval training (SIT) is a potent exercise strategy to enhance athletes' aerobic capacity in a time-efficient manner. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a low-volume court-based SIT program on aerobic capacity and sport-specific endurance performance for competitive tennis players. Sixteen competitive collegiate tennis players were randomly assigned to the SIT (court-based repeated-sprint training) and traditional endurance training (ET; 45-min continuous treadmill running) groups for a 6-week intervention (3 sessions/week).

Methods: Sixty-nine patients (n=69, 100%), predominantly female (n=49, 71%), were included in the study. Polysomnographic data were collected during hospital-based CPAP titration.

Introduction: Assessment of exercise capacity by cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) is important for prognostication and preoperative assessment. Peak oxygen uptake (PVO) is used commonly, but can be challenging due to the difficulties of undertaking maximal CPET testing in this population. We explored whether oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) at ventilatory anaerobic threshold (VAT), the point during CPET at which OUES becomes strongly correlated with PVO, and is more reliably available from submaximal CPET, can predict PVO in adults with CHD.
