| Abstract | This study was designed to test whether obese adults and adults with metabolic syndrome (MetSyn) exhibit altered hyperemic responses to hypoxia at rest and during forearm exercise when compared with lean controls. We hypothesized blood flow responses due to hypoxia would be lower in young obese subjects (n = 11, 24 ± 2 years, BMI 36 ± 2 kg m−2) and subjects with MetSyn (n = 8, 29 ± 3 years BMI 39 ± 2 kg m−2) when compared with lean adults (n = 13, 29 ± 2 years, BMI 24 ± 1 kg m−2). We measured forearm blood flow (FBF, Doppler Ultrasound) and arterial oxygen saturation (pulse oximetry) during rest and steady-state dynamic forearm exercise (20 contractions/min at 8 and 12 kg) under two conditions: normoxia (0.21 FiO2, ~98% SaO2) and hypoxia (~0.10 FiO2, 80% SaO2). Forearm vascular conductance (FVC) was calculated as FBF/mean arterial blood pressure. At rest, the percent change in FVC with hypoxia was greater in adults with MetSyn when compared with lean controls (p = 0.02); obese and lean adult responses were not statistically different. Exercise increased FVC from resting levels in all groups (p < 0.05). Hypoxia caused an additional increase in FVC (p < 0.05) that was not different between groups; responses to hypoxia were heterogeneous within and between groups. Reporting FVC responses as absolute or percent changes led to similar conclusions. These results suggest adults with MetSyn exhibit enhanced hypoxic vasodilation at rest. However, hypoxic responses during exercise in obese adults and adults with MetSyn were not statistically different when compared with lean adults. Individual hypoxic vasodilatory responses were variable, suggesting diversity in vascular control. |

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.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
