Effect of acute ascorbic acid infusion on the exercise-mediated increase in FVC. A: Lean (n = 14), Obese (n = 10), MetSyn (n = 13). The exercise-mediated increase FVC from rest (Δ, Exercise − Rest) was not altered when AA was infused (Trial 1, Min 15), compared with exercise alone (Trial 1, Min 5) (main effect of AA: P = 0.34), and responses were not different between groups (main effect of group: P = 0.16). B: change in the exercise-mediated increase in FVC with AA infusion was not different between groups (interaction between group and AA: P = 0.94) although individual responses were variable (a positive value indicates FVC increased after AA infusion). C: Lean (n = 15), Obese (n = 10), MetSyn (n = 14). The exercise-mediated increase in FVC from rest (Δ) was not different between groups (main effect of group, P = 0.31), and responses did not increase when AA was infused (Trial 2, Min 5), compared with exercise alone (Trial 1, Min 5) (main effect of AA: P = 0.93). D: change in the exercise-mediated increase in FVC with AA infusion was not different between groups (interaction between group and AA: P = 0.85) although individual responses were variable (a positive value indicates FVC increased after AA infusion).
