| Abstract | Patients with reduced peak oxygen uptake ( $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ ) due to chronic heart failure (CHF) exhibit abnormal $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ kinetics even during mild to moderate exercise. This is characterized by a reduced ratio of the $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ increase to the work rate increment (Δ $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ /ΔWR) during ramp exercise, and by a slow increase in $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ during constant work rate exercise. Because the slow $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ kinetics alone is unlikely to explain the reduced Δ $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ /ΔWR on theoretical grounds, we can postulate that the linearity between work rate and $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ may be impaired when exercise is imposed in a ramp fashion. The present study was designed to address this issue. In 21 CHF patients and 17 normal controls, we performed both symptom-limited exercise testing (15 W · min−1 ramp) and a constant work rate exercise test (0 W followed by 50-W step). The $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ step response was used to mathematically derive the hypothetical $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ ramp response by time integration. Although peak $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ and work rate were both significantly lower in patients, the attenuation in peak $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ was more prominent (p<0.05), which could be explained by a lower Δ $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ /ΔWR in patients compared with controls [8.1 (SD 1.0) and 9.8 (0.5) ml · min−1 · W−1, p<0.01]. The hypothetical Δ $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ /ΔWR derived from the $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ step response was also significantly lower in patients [8.7 (1.0) and 10.0 (0.7) ml · min−1 · W−1, p<0.01]. The hypothetical and measured Δ $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ /ΔWR were highly correlated (r=0.78, p<0.001). Thus, we can reasonably predict the $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ ramp response from the $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ response to a step increase in work rate, indicating that linearity between $$ {\dot{V}O_{2} } $$ and work rate is held constant irrespective of loading patterns. Additional studies, such as those including evaluation of anaerobic bioenergetics, are needed to further elucidate the precise mechanism(s) of this phenomenon. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
