Figure 1.
Test duration (tCPET), time to gas exchange threshold (GET-time), peak work rate (WR) and 6-minute walk test distance (6MWD) in the untrained (white bars) and trained (black bars) patients with ILD. Error bars equal 1 standard deviation unit.
atCPET was 163±130 seconds longer in the trained than in the untrained state (P=.001).
bGET-time was 145±15 seconds longer in the trained than in the untrained state (P<.001).
cPeak work rate (WR) was 43±37 watts greater (P=.002).
d6MWD was 52±48 meters farther in the trained versus the untrained state (P=.001)
