Abbreviation: CPET, cardiopulmonary exercise testing. VO2peak, peak oxygen uptake; VO2peak/Pred, ratio of peak oxygen uptake to predicted; RERpeak, peak respiratory exchange ratio; HRpeak, peak heart rate; O2-pulse peak: peak oxygen pulse; SBPpeak, peak systolic blood pressure; VO2@AT, oxygen uptake at anaerobic threshold; HR@AT, heart rate at anaerobic threshold; O2-pulse@AT, oxygen pulse at anaerobic threshold; VE/VCO2slope, ventilation per carbon dioxide output slope.
