Abbreviations: BMI (kg m−2), body mass index; Waist (cm), waist circumference; VO2peak (ml kg−1 min−1), peak oxygen uptake per kg; VO2peak (ml kg−1FFM min−1), peak oxygen uptake per kg fat-free mass; VAT (% predicted VO2peak), ventilatory anaerobic threshold as percentage of predicted VO2peak; sed, sedentary normative values; recr, recreational normative values; 6MWD, 6-min walk distance; PT, peak torque

aWaist circumference: n = 14, because of thickness of the skin at the place of the cicatrice in four patients

bBody fat and VO2peak: n = 17, because the thickness of the subscapular skinfold could not be measured reliably in one patient
