  1. 1. The Effects of Longer Stage Durations During an Incremental Graded Exercise Test on the Finnish Lactate Threshold Concept

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Julius von Martens; [2021]
    Keywords : biomedicine; graded exercise test; lactate; threshold; spirometry; treadmill;

    Abstract : Background: The end-product of glycolysis is lactate, which is subsequently oxidised to produce more energy. With increasing intensity, the rate of lactate production exceeds the capacity to eliminate lactate, leading to an exponential accumulation of blood lactate. READ MORE

  2. 2. Physiological responses in underwater sports. A systematic review of the diving response due to exercise performed in apnoea.David Esteve-

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper

    Author : David Esteve-Garde; [2021]
    Keywords : Artistic swimming; freediving; blood lactate; heart rate; arterial pressure; arterial saturation; oxygen uptake;

    Abstract : AbstractUnderwater sports such as artistic swimming and freediving, are characterized by periods of voluntary arrest of breathing, known as apnoea, while exercising. It is well known that apnoea leads to bradycardia and some other oxygen conserving responses, but little is known when exercise is conducted underwater, and the differences between exercise with intermittent and maximal apnoea periods.

  3. 3. VO2peak/THV-ratio differ between heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction and healthy controls

    University essay from Högskolan Kristianstad/Sektionen för lärande och miljö

    Author : Calle Nilsson; [2017]
    Keywords : Heart failure; Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Preserved Ejection Fraction; Total Heart Volume; Peak Oxygen Uptake; VO2peak THV ratio; Hjärtsvikt; magnetresonanstomografi; kardiovaskulär magnetresonanstomografi; bevarad ejektionsfraktion; total hjärtvolym; maximalt syreupptag; VO2peak THV -index;

    Abstract : Heart failure is a term for a group of complex symtoms characterized by reduced heart function. One of these syndromes, referred to as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), has increased in prevalence compared to other types of heart failures during the recent years. READ MORE
