Parameter estimates for linear (Q), hyperbolic (a-vO2diff), and double-linear (%Δ[HHb]) models as a function of V̇o2p displayed for men and women

Q
a-vO2diff
%Δ[HHb]
m b a B m1 b1 m2 b2
Men 5.8 ± 1.1 4.2 ± 2.4 18.3 ± 3.5 0.9 ± 0.5 42.4 ± 6.4 −55.7 ± 20.6 2.0 ± 9.7 90.7 ± 38.8
Women 5.7 ± 1.0 2.9 ± 1.6 17.2 ± 3.4 0.5 ± 0.3 76.8 ± 23.4* −89.3 ± 39.0* 9.8 ± 10.1 66.6 ± 31.2

Values are expressed as means ± SD, derived from each individual. m, slope of the linear regression; b, y-intercept of the linear regression; a, asymptotic value; B, x value corresponding to 50% of the total amplitude; m1 and m2 slope of linear regression before and after Δ[HHb] -BP, respectively; b1 and b2 y-intercept of linear regression before and after Δ[HHb] -BP, respectively.

*

Significant difference from men, P < 0.05; n = 10 for men and women.
