|---|---|---|---|
| LV EF, % | 63.0 (60.0, 67.0) | 64.0 (61.0, 66.0) | 0.96 |
| LV EDV, mL | 147.5 (130.0, 173.0) | 147.0 (130.0, 180.0) | 0.24 |
| LV EDD, mL | 54.0 (47.0, 74.0) | 51.0 (44.0, 62.0) | 0.23 |
| LV ESV, cm | 5.5 (5.2, 5.9) | 5.5 (5.2, 6.0) | 0.31 |
| LV ESD, cm | 3.6 (3.4, 4.1) | 3.5 (3.3, 3.8) | 0.47 |
| VO2 peak, mL/kg/min | 15.3 (13.4, 18.3) | 15.7 (13.7, 17.1) | 0.64 |
| VO2 peak, % | 59.0 (55.0, 70.0) | 63.0 (54.0, 69.0) | 0.78 |
| AT, mL/kg/min | 11.9 (10.3, 14.9) | 12.5 (10.9, 15.7) | 0.24 |
| AT, % | 47.5 (43.0, 59.0) | 49.5 (44.0, 62.0) | 0.15 |
| Peak heart rate, bpm | 110 (98, 126) | 112 (97, 129) | 0.57 |
| Exercise tolerance, W | 75.0 (75.0, 100.0) | 87.5 (75.0, 100.0) | 0.78 |
Note: AT—anaerobic threshold; LV EDV—end diastolic volume of the left ventricle; LV EDD—end diastolic dimension of the left ventricle; LV ESV—end systolic volume of the left ventricle; LV ESD—end systolic dimension of the left ventricle; LV EF—left ventricular ejection fraction; and VO2 peak—peak oxygen consumption.
