A test to determine parameters of aerobic function during exercise

Whipp, B. J., Davis, J. A., Torres, F., Wasserman, K.·1981·Journal of Applied Physiology

Abstract

A short-duration cycle ergometer exercise test has been developed that allows four parameters of aerobic function to be discerned. These are the maximum O2 uptake, anaerobic threshold, work efficiency, and the time constant for O2 uptake kinetics. The test form is a ramp of 4-8 min duration to the limit of tolerance. The parameters determined from the ramp faithfully reproduced those obtained from several standard procedures. We conclude that a profile of aerobic function in man can be obtained from a single short-duration ramp test.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
