Effects of 4 weeks of chronic normobaric hypoxia on fatigue in diaphragm and soleus. (A) Soleus muscles from the Hypoxia group fatigued faster compared to Control: the curves diverged almost immediately after the start of the fatigue protocol and the force produced by the Hypoxia muscles were significantly less at each one of the time points shown (p<0.05, n ≥ 7 muscles per group). (B) Fatigue curves from Control and Hypoxia diaphragm muscle bundles. Force decreased equally in both groups over the duration of the fatigue protocol; there were no significant differences at any time point (n ≥ 7 muscles per group).
