| Rest | AT | Peak | P-values | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rest versus AT or Peak | ||||
| EF (%) | 54 ± 12 | 65 ± 16 | 57 ± 10 | <.01 |
| PER (EDV0∗sec−1) | 3.1 ± 0.9 | 3.6 ± 1.0 | 4.3 ± 0.9 | <.01 |
| SVR (mmHg ∗ EDV0−1 ∗ min−1) | 2.6 ± 0.8 | 1.3 ± 0.4 | 1.2 ± 0.2 | <.01 |
Data are presented as the mean value ± standard deviation. EF: ejection fraction; PER: peak ejection ratio; SVR: systemic vascular resistance; AT: anaerobic threshold; Peak: at peak exercise.
