| Abstract | Echocardiography can be used to estimate myocardial contractility by the assessment of the circumferential end-systolic stress-corrected left ventricular (LV) fractional shortening measured at midwall level (stress-corrected MWS). Whether stress-corrected MWS at rest predicts exercise peak oxygen uptake (peak V̇O2) is unknown. Also, it is not known whether the propagation rate of the early LV filling wave (E wave propagation rate, V̇ p), a new pre-load insensitive index of LV diastolic function, and echocardiographically assessed indices of arterial stiffness correlate to peak V̇O2. Accordingly, we performed echocardiographic studies and exercise tests with respiratory gas analysis in 15 young healthy male subjects (mean age 27 years, range 18–36). Neither stress-corrected-MWS (r=0.20, P=NS) nor ejection fraction (r=−0.05, P=NS) correlated significantly with peak V̇O2. Adjustment for age and resting heart rate had no effect on the results. In separate multiple regression models adjusting for standard covariates (age, LV size and heart rate), peak V̇O2 correlated with V̇ p (beta=0.98, P<0.01), as well as with E/A (beta=0.85, P<0.01), and with the isovolumic relaxation time (indicator of LV relaxation) (beta=−0.59, P<0.05). Arterial stiffness indices showed no significant relation to peak V̇O2. We conclude that in young healthy male subjects, resting myocardial contractility and arterial stiffness are not significant correlates of peak V̇O2, whereas LV diastolic function, and in particular V̇ p, influences the variability of peak V̇O2. |

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.
