Power-oxygen uptake (
) frequency responses can be used to predict
responses to arbitrary exercise intensity patterns. It is still an open question for which range of exercise intensities such computed
response patterns yield valid predictions. In the present study, we determined the power-
frequency response of nine sports students by means of pseudo-randomised switching between 20 W and 80 W during upright and supine cycle exercise. Starting from a baseline of 20 W each subject also performed sustained step increases to 40 W, 80 W, 120 W, and 160 W in both positions. The individual
step responses were then compared with the expected
time-courses predicted on the basis of the individual
frequency responses. The comparison showed a close agreement for the 20 W–40 W and 20 W–80 W steps in both positions. With larger step amplitudes the
kinetics became increasingly slower than the predicted
time course in both positions. During additional ramp tests (10 W · 30 s–1) whole blood lactic acid concentration [1a–]b tended to be higher in the supine position at exercise intensities higher than 160 W. The mean power at 4 mmol · 1–1 [la–]b amounted to 234 (SD 32) W and 253 (SD 44) W (P<5%) in the supine and the upright position, respectively. The maximal oxygen uptake relative to body mass was not found to be significantly different [upright, mean 57 (SD 10) ml · (min · kg)–1;supine, mean 54 (SD 10) ml · (min · kg)]. These findings would suggest that for a range of mild exercise intensities
kinetics are not appreciably influenced by the step amplitude or by cardiovascular changes associated with the upright and the supine position. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to estimate the characteristic exercise intensity
CL which produces the maximal steady state of blood lactate concentration (MLSS) from submaximal intensities of 20 min carried out on the same day and separated by 40 min. Ten fit male adults [maximal oxygen uptake
max 62 (SD 7) ml · min–1 · kg–1] exercisOed for two 30-min periods on a cycle ergometer at 67% (test 1.1) and 82% of
max (test 1.2) separated by 40 min. They exercised 4 days later for 30 min at 82% of
max without prior exercise (test 2). Blood lactate was collected for determination of lactic acid concentration every 5 min and heart rate and O2 uptake
were measured every 30 s. There were no significant differences at the 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th, or 30th min between
, lactacidaemia, and heart rate during tests 1.2 and 2. Moreover, we compared the exercise intensities
CL which produced the MLSS obtained during tests 1.1 and 1.2 or during tests 1.1 and 2 calculated from differential values of lactic acid blood concentration ([1a–]b) between the 30th and the 5th min or between the 20th and the 5th min. There was no significant difference between the different values of
CL [68 (SD 9), 71 (SD 7), 73 (SD 6),71 (SD 11) % of
max (ANOVA test,P<0.05). Four subjects ran for 60 min at their
CL determined from periods performed on the same day (test 1.1 and 1.2) and the difference between the [la–]b at 5 min and at 20 min ( ([la–]b)) was computed. The [la–]b remained constant during exercise and ranged from 2.2 to 6.7 mmol · l–1 [mean value equal to 3.9 (SD 1) mmol · l–1]. These data suggest that the
CL protocol did not overestimate the exercise intensity corresponding to the maximal fractional utilization of
max at MLSS. For half of the subjects the
CL was very close to the higher stage (82% of
max where an accumulation of lactate in the blood with time was observed. It can be hypothesized that
CL was very close to the real MLSS considering the level of accuracy of [la–]b measurement. This study showed that exercise at only two intensities, performed at 65% and 80% of
max and separated by 40 min of complete rest, can be used to determine the intensity yielding a steady state of [la–1]b near the real MLSS workload value. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to measure running times to exhaustion (Tlim) on a treadmill at 100% of the minimum velocity which elicits
max
max in 38 elite male long - distance runners
max = 71.4 ± 5.5 ml.kg–1.min–1 and
max = 21.8 ± 1.2 km.h–1). The lactate threshold (LT) was defined as a starting point of accelerated lactate accumulation around 4 mM and was expressed in
max. Tlim value was negatively correlated with
max (r = -0.362, p< 0.05) and
max (r = –0.347, p< 0.05) but positively with LT (%v
max) (r = 0.378, p < 0.05). These data demonstrate that running time to exhaustion at
max in a homogeneous group of elite male long-distance runners was inversely related to
max and experimentally illustrates the model of Monod and Scherrer regarding the time limit-velocity relationship adapted from local exercise for running by Hughson et al. (1984) . 相似文献

Summary The energy requirements of Adélie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) chicks were analysed with respect to body mass (W, 0.145–3.35 kg, n=36) and various forms of activity (lying, standing, minor activity, locomotion, walking on a treadmill). Direct respirometry was used to measure O2 consumption (
) and CO2 production. Heart rate (HR, bpm) was recorded from the ECG obtained by both externally attached electrodes and implantable HR-transmitters. The parameters measured were not affected by hand-rearing of the chicks or by implanting transmitters. HR measured in the laboratory and in the field were comparable. Oxygen uptake ranged from
in lying chicks to
at maximal activity, RQ=0.76. Metabolic rate in small wild chicks (0.14–0.38 kg) was not affected by time of day, nor was their feeding frequency in the colony (Dec 20–21). Regressions of HR on
were highly significant (p< 0.0001) in transmitter implanted chicks (n=4), and two relationships are proposed for the pooled data, one for minor activities (
), and one for walking (
). Oxygen consumption, mass of the chick (2–3 kg), and duration of walking (T, s) were related as
, whereas mass-specific O2 consumption was related to walking speed (S, m·s-1) as

Summary Adelie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) experience a wide range of ambient temperatures (T
a) in their natural habitat. We examined body temperature (T
b), oxygen consumption (
), carbon dioxide production (
), evaporative water loss (
), and ventilation atT
a from –20 to 30 °C. Body temperature did not change significantly between –20 and 20°C (meanT
b=39.3°C).T
b increased slightly to 40.1 °C atT
a=30°C. Both
and
were constant and minimal atT
a between –10 and 20°C, with only minor increases at –20 and 30°C. The minimal
of adult penguins (mean mass 4.007 kg) was 0.0112 ml/[g·min], equivalent to a metabolic heat production (MHP) of 14.9 Watt. The respiratory exchange ratio was approximately 0.7 at allT
a. Values of
were low at lowT
a, but increased to 0.21 g/min at 30°C, equivalent to 0.3% of body mass/h. Dry conductance increased 3.5-fold between –20 and 30°C. Evaporative heat loss (EHL) comprised about 5% of MHP at lowT
a, rising to 47% of MHP atT
a=30°C. The means of ventilation parameters (tidal volume [VT], respiration frequency [f], minute volume [I], and oxygen extraction [
]) were fairly stable between –20 and 10°C (VT did not change significantly over the entireT
a range). However, there was considerable inter- and intra-individual variation in ventilation patterns. AtT
a=20–30°C,f increased 7-fold over the minimal value of 7.6 breaths/min, and I showed a similar change.

Summary Values for basal metabolism, standard tidal volume (V
T), standard minute volume (
), and mean extraction efficiency (EO2) in the thermal neutral zone (TNZ) inAgapornis roseicollis (1.84 ml·min–1; 0.95 ml·br–1, STPD; and 33.3 ml·min–1, STPD; and 22.5%; respectively) were all very similar to values for these parameters previously measured inBolborhynchus lineola, a similarly sized, closely related species from a distinctly different habitat.Having both a lower critical temperature (Tlc) below and an upper critical temperature (Tuc) above those ofB. lineola, the TNZ ofA. roseicollis extended from 25° to at least 35°C. The thermal conductance below the TNZ ofA. roseicollis was 14% less than that ofB. lineola. Therefore, at 5°C the standard metabolic rate (SMR) of the former is 17% less than that of the latter, and at 35°C it is 20% less. At 5°CA. roseicollis has a lower EO2 and at 35°C a higher EO2 than that ofB. lineola. The patterns of resting energy metabolism and of ventilation ofA. roseicollis and ofB. lineola are consistent with the former species being better suited to living in a more variable thermal environment than the latter.MeanV

Summary Six Standardbred horses were used to evaluate the time course of pulmonary gas exchange, ventilation, heart rate (HR) and acid base balance during different intensities of constant-load treadmill exercise. Horses were exercised at approximately 50%, 75% and 100% maximum oxygen uptake (
max) for 5 min and measurements taken every 30 s throughout exercise. At all work rates, the minute ventilation, respiratory frequency and tidal volume reached steady state values by 60 s of exercise. At 100%
max, the oxygen consumption (
) increased to mean values of approximately 130 ml/kg·min, which represents a 40-fold increase above resting
. At the low and moderate work rates,
showed no significant change from 30 s to 300 s of exercise. At the high work rate, the mean
at 30 s was 80% of the value at 300 s. The HR showed no significant change over time at the moderate work rate but differing responses at the low and high work rates. At the low work rate, the mean HR decreased from 188 beats/min at 30 s to 172 beats/min at 300 s exercise, whereas at the high work rate the mean HR increased from 204 beats/min at 30 s to 221 beats/min at 300 s exercise. No changes in acid base status occurred during exercise at the low work rate. At the moderate work rate, a mild metabolic acidosis occurred which was nonprogressive with time, whereas the high work rate resulted in a progressive metabolic acidosis with a base deficit of 16 mmol/l by 300 s exercise. It is concluded that the kinetics of gas exchange during exercise are more rapid in the horse than in man, despite the relatively greater change in
in the horse when going from rest to high intensity exercise.Symbols and abbreviations E

The degree to which the y-intercept (Y-int) of the linear regression of maximal work output on exercise duration represented anaerobic capacity was determined in ten well-trained male cyclists [peak oxygen uptake (
= 69.8 (SD 4.2) ml · kg –1 · min –1). Each cyclist performed three exhausting cycle sessions on separate occasions; the mean exercise durations were 312, 243 and 141 s for the low (approximately 104%
, medium (approximately 108%
and high (approximately 113%
intensities respectively, and Y-int (kilojoules; joules per kilogram was derived from the regression of work output on exercise duration. The muscle anaerobic adenosine 5-triphosphate (ATP) yield (ATP) and anaerobic capacity (AC) were estimated from changes in metabolites in the vastus lateralis muscle and blood lactate concentration during the high intensity cycling session. The activities of glycogen phosphorylase, phosphofructokinase and citrate synthase, as well as muscle buffer value (in vitro ) were also determined. The Y-int (kilojoules) was positively correlated (P0.05) with AC (r=0.73), ATP (r=0.70) and in vitro (r=0.71); similar correlations (P0.05) were observed for Y-int (joules per kilogram). The Y-int was not correlated (P>0.05) with any enzyme activity. When the Y-int was transformed into oxygen equivalents [litres of oxygen equivalent (1 O2 Eq)] it was, on average, 0.92 1 O2 Eq lower than AC (P0.05); however, an alternative method of establishing the work-duration regression yielded a mean Y-int which was only 0.19 1 O2 Eq less than AC (P0.05). These findings support the validity of Y-int as a work estimate of anaerobic capacity in well-trained cyclists. 相似文献

In a randomly selected sample of 88 men and 115 women, aged 23–27 years from Denmark, maximal oxygen uptake (
O2max), maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) in four muscle groups and physical activity were studied. The
O2max was 48.0 ml · min–1 kg–1 and 39.6 ml · min–1 · kg–1 for the men and the women, respectively. The MVC was 10% lower than in a comparable group of Danes of the same age and height studied 35 years ago. Only in men was sports activity directly related to
O2max (ml · min–1 · kg–1; r=0.31, P<0.01). The MVC of the knee extensors was related to
O2max in the men (r=0.31, P<0.01), but there was no relationship between the other measurements of MVC and
O2max. In the women
O2max (ml · min–1 · kg–1) was only related to body size, i.e. body mass index, percentage body fat and body mass [(r= –0.47, –0.48 (both P<0.001) and –0.34. (P<0.01), respectively)]. There were differences in
O2max in the men, according to education and occupation. Blue collar workers and subjects attending vocational or trade schools in 1983 had lower
O2max and more of them were physically inactive. In the women differences were also found, but there was no clear pattern among the groups. More of the women participated regularly in sports activity, but more of the men were very active compared to the women. 相似文献

Red blood cell (RBC) susceptibility to oxidative and osmotic stress in vitro was investigated in cells from trained and untrained men before and after submaximal exercise. Whilst no significant change in peroxidative haemolysis occurred immediately after 1 h of cycling at 60% of maximal aerobic capacity (
max), a 20% increase was found 6 h later in both groups (P<0.05). The RBC osmotic fragility decreased by 15% immediately after exercise (P<0.001) and this was maintained for 6 h (Ps<0.001). There was an associated decrease in mean cell volume (P<0.05). Training decreased RBC susceptibility to peroxidative haemolysis (P<0.025) but it did not influence any other parameter. These exercise-induced changes were smaller in magnitude but qualitatively similar to those found in haemopathological states involving haem-iron incorporation into membrane lipids and the short-circuiting of antioxidant protection. To explore this similarity, a more strenuous and mechanically stressful exercise test was used. Running at 75%
max for 45 min reduced the induction time of O2 uptake (peroxidation), consistent with reduced antioxidation capacity, and increased the maximal rate of O2 uptake in RBC challenged with cumene hydroperoxide (P<0.001). The proportion of high-density RBC increased by 10% immediately after running (P<0.001) but no change in membrane-incorporated haem-iron occurred. In contrast, treatment of RBC with oxidants (20–50 mol·l–1 in vitro increased cell density and membrane incorporation of haem-iron substantially. These results showed that single episodes of submaximal exercise caused significant changes in RBC susceptibility to oxidative and osmotic stress. Such responses may account for the increase in RBC turnover found in athletes undertaking strenuous endurance training. 相似文献

To determine the change in muscle oxygenation in response to progressively increasing work rate exercise, muscle oxyhemoglobin + oxymyoglobin saturation was measured transcutaneously with near infrared spectroscopy in the vastus lateralis muscle during cycle ergometry. Studies were done in 11 subjects while gas exchange was measured breath-by-breath. As work rate was increased, tissue oxygenation initially either remained constant near resting levels or, more usually, decreased. Near the work rate and metabolic rate where significant lactic acidosis was detected by excess CO2 production (lactic acidosis threshold, LAT), muscle oxygenation decreased more steeply. As maximum oxygen uptake (
) was approached, the rate of desaturation slowed. In 8 of the 11 subjects, tissue O2 saturation reached a minimum which was sustained for 1–3 min before
was reached. The LAT correlated with both the
(r = 0.95,P < 0.0001) and the work rate (r = 0.94,P < 0.0001) at which the rate of tissue O2 desaturation accelerated. These results describe a consistent pattern in the rate of decrease in muscle oxygenation, slowly decreasing over the lower work rate range, decreasing more rapidly in the work rate range of the LAT and then slowing at about 80% of

Summary Nest humidity (
) under an incubating bantam hen was measured at ambient
ranging from 1.3 to 25.0 mmHg. Weight loss of eggs was recorded in clutches of varying size. Nest
and ambient
were also measured in wild incubating willow ptarmigan nests in dry and wet habitats.Nest
increased linearly with ambient
in a way predictable on the assumption that the water vapour conductance (
) of brood patch skin, plumage and eggs were constant and independent of ambient
. Nest
was also dependent of clutch size. Egg dehydration was quantitatively predicted from measured values and the laws of diffusion.Our findings confirm earlier conclusions that the adult bird does not actively regulate nest
at varying ambient
. Birds can presumably achieve appropriate egg dehydration by a strategy combining nest site, nest construction, egg shell conductance and incubation behaviour which meets the requirements of their breeding climate.Abbreviations

Summary Nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.2) activity (NRA), as measured by an in vivo assay, is present in needle leaves and mycorrhizal fine root tips of adult Norway spruce [Picea abies (L.) Karst.] in at least equal amounts on a fresh weight basis, in both adult and 5-year-old trees. NRA could also be demonstrated in trunk wood of deroted trees after fertilization with 5 mM
, exhibiting a longitudinal profile in the trunk. Inducibility in needles can more efficiently be achieved by NO2 (100 g·m-3) than by 5 mM nitrate, which is effective only in root-amputated trees. A remarkably high level of needle-NRA in unfertilized trees, which are characterized by a very low level of nitrate in the xylem sap, suggests that NRA in spruce needles may in part be constitutive. Organic-N is a major nitrogen source for the needles even in root-amputated trees, indicating pronounced exchange processes between ray parenchyma and trunk xylem, which in turn are modified by the nitrogen source fed to the trunk stump. Intact trees exhibit a very similar amino acid composition of the xylem sap, regardless of whether
or
has been fed. The amino acid pattern of the needles is not thrown out of balance by flooding with
and
, which occurs in fertilized derooted trees. This indicates a distinct potential for homoeostasis of nitrogen entrance-metabolism (i.e. NRA and glutamine synthetase activity) in the needles. In the ectomycorrhiza/fine root-system (EMC), marked differences in NRA were observed depending on root-tip diameter and along the longitudinal profile of the fine roots. EMC-nitrate reductase is strongly enhanced by
. Needle-NRA exhibits a circannual rhythm. An early summer maximum is followed by a December minimum. This activity pattern matches well the transitory increase of soluble nitrogen in spring and the total protein maximum in winter. In an indirect way assimilatory NRA may well contribute to nitrogen overfertilization (by consumption of NOX) as one possible cause of the contemporary decline of spruce populations. 相似文献

The effect of exercise training on heart rate variability (HRV) and improvements in peak oxygen consumption (
peak) was examined in sedentary middle-aged men. The HRV and absolute and relative
peak of training (n = 19) and control (n = 15) subjects were assessed before and after a 24-session moderate intensity exercise training programme. Results indicated that with exercise training there was a significantly increased absolute and relative
peak (P < 0.005) for the training group (12% and 11% respectively) with no increase for the control group. The training group also displayed a significant reduction in resting heart rate; however, HRV remained unchanged. The trained subjects were further categorized into high (n = 5) and low (n = 5) HRV groups and changes in
peak were compared. Improvements in both absolute and relative
peak were significantly greater (P > 0.005) in the high HRV group (17% and 20% respectively) compared to the low HRV group (6% and 1% respectively). The groups did not differ in mean age, pretraining oxygen consumption, or resting heart rate. These results would seem to suggest that a short aerobic training programme does not alter HRV in middle-aged men. Individual differences in HRV, however, may be associated with
peak response to aerobic training. 相似文献

The present investigation examined the relationship between CO2 sensitivity [at rest (S

E)] and the ventilatory response to exercise in ten elderly (61–79 years) and ten younger (17–26 years) subjects. The gradient of the relationship between minute ventilation and CO2 production (
E/
CO2) of the elderly subjects was greater than that of the younger subjects [mean (SEM); 32.8 (1.6) vs 27.3 (0.4); P<0.01]. At rest, S
R was lower for the elderly than for the younger group [10.77 (1.72) vs 16.95 (2.13) 1 · min–1 · kPa–1; 1.44 (0.23) vs 2.26 (0.28) 1 · min–1 · mmHg–1; P<0.05], but S
E was not significantly different between the two groups [17.85 (2.49) vs 19.17 (1.62) l · min–1 · kPa–1; 2.38 (0.33) vs 2.56 (0.21) 1 · min–1 · mmHg–1]. There were significant correlations between both S
R and S
E, and
E/
CO2 (P<0.05; P<0.001) for the younger group, bot none for the elderly. The absence of a correlation for the elderly supports the suggestion that
E/

Quasi-elastic laser light scattering has been used to investigate the size and dispersity of synaptosomes and synaptic vesicles isolated from optic lobes of the squid Loligo pealei. Synaptosomal fractions were highly polydisperse (
) and the mean diameter (
) ranged from 0.5–2.0 m. Size distribution histograms yielded two major components — smaller particles (
) and a larger group of particles (
). The heterogeneity of the synaptosomal particles detected in solution is in agreement with published data obtained using electron microscopy. Purified synaptic vesicle fractions also yielded complex particle size distribution data. A component with a mean diameter in the range 150–250 nm was detected, though a smaller particle (
) dominated the scattering signal. This smaller particle closely resembles in size the electron lucent vesicles seen in the majority of squid optic lobe nerve terminals when examined by electron microscopy. Osmotically-induced shirnkage and swelling of the synptosomes was detected. Depolarization by veratridine (1.0×10–4
M) did not result in a detectable change in the size of synaptosomal particles. 相似文献

Summary Eggs of the brush turkey (BT) and mallee fowl (MF) are incubated in mounds of soil and plant litter. Humidity in BT mounds is always near saturation (>99% RH), but in MF mounds it drops to lower values in summer (x=77% RH). Despite these high humidities, the eggs lose an average of 9.5% (BT) and 12.0% (MF) of their initial mass by evaporation before hatching. The rate of evaporation
increases during incubation several-fold due to large changes in water vapor conductance of the shell
and embryonic heat production. Values of
in fully incubated eggs in mound material are about 3–6 times higher than values obtained from unincubated eggs in desiccators. This effect depends on two factors: (1)
increases with ambient humidity, especially above 80% RH, possibly because the effective site of evaporation moves out along the walls of the pores in the eggshell. (2) Structural changes of the pores due to calcium absorption by the embryo directly increase
. The first factor is most important in BT eggs and the second is dominant in MF eggs. Production of metabolic heat by the embryo increases the vapor pressure difference across the shell and further increases
, especially in mounds of high humidity. The changes in pore structure are adaptive because they produce high conductances to respiratory gases and cause normal gas tensions within the egg at the end of development, yet
is low enough in early development to prevent excessive water loss. Water not lost by evaporation or taken up by the embryo is stored and released during hatching. A small amount of mass is lost during incubation by respiratory gas exchange.Abbreviations

Summary Oxygen consumption
was measured at rest and during spontaneous activity at body temperatures of 25 and 35°C in 14 fasting Savanna monitor lizards,Varanus exanthematicus ranging in weight from 172 to 7500 g. The allometric relationship between metabolic rate at 25°C and body weight (W) is given by:
(ml O2 STPD·g–1·hr–1)=0.88W
–0.43 (Fig. 2). Although statistical comparisons are equivocal, this intraspecific size dependence exceeds that reported for interspecific comparisons among reptiles and other vertebrate groups (Fig 3). A reproducible diurnal pattern of activity was observed in undisturbed animals with minimum values of
between 2400 and 0800 h (Fig. 1). Spontaneous activity and
generally reached peak values between 1200 and 2000 hrs. The average ratio of active aerobic metabolic rate (AMR) to minimum (standard) aerobic metabolic rate (SMR) was 8.2. This voluntary AMR/SMR inVaranus exceeds the AMR/SMR for most reptiles stimulated to exhaustion. The high aerobic capacity is consistent with other evidence for efficient exchange and transport of respiratory gases inV. exanthematicus; e.g., low or absent intracardiac shunt flow resulting in high arterial saturation and low ventilation
and perfusion
requirements. 相似文献

The effect of severe acute hypoxia (fractional concentration of inspired oxygen equalled 0.104) was studied in nine male subjects performing an incremental exercise test. For power outputs over 125 W, all the subjects in a state of hypoxia showed a decrease in oxygen consumption (
O2) relative to exercise intensity compared with normoxia (P < 0.05). This would suggest an increased anaerobic metabolism as an energy source during hypoxic exercise. During submaximal exercise, for a given
O2, higher blood lactate concentrations were found in hypoxia than in normoxia (P < 0.05). In consequence, the onset of blood lactate accumulation (OBLA) was shifted to a lower
O2 (
O2 1.77 l·min–1 in hypoxia vs 3.10 l·min–1 in normoxia). Lactate concentration increases relative to minute ventilation (
E) responses were significantly higher during hypoxia than in normoxia (P < 0.05). At OBLA,
E during hypoxia was 25% lower than in the normoxic test. This study would suggest that in hypoxia subjects are able to use an increased anaerobic metabolism to maintain exercise performance. 相似文献
