Breathing in man during steady-state exercise on the bicycle at two pedalling frequencies, and during treadmill walking.

Abstract

1. The breathing pattern, that is the changes in tidal volume (VT), and in inspiratory (TI) and expiratory (TE) durations, has been studied as ventilation increases in exercise. 2. Five healthy subjects were studied in steady-state exercise on a bicycle ergometer, breathing air, at two speeds of pedalling and at six different loads. The pattern was recorded for single breaths. Two of the subjects were also studied while walking on a treadmill with four combinations of speed and gradient. 3. In bicycle exercise, as the CO2 output increased mean VT increased, and mean TI and TE decreased, the absolute decrease in TI being small. The pedalling speed did not affect these relationships. 4. Individual breath durations showed no tendency to group around multiples of the period of rotation of the pedals. 5. In treadmill exercise, no clear influence of stride rate on respiratory rate could be found. The pattern was similar to that found in bicycle exercise. Again no grouping could be found. 6. No evidence of an effect of frequency of limb movement on breathing pattern in submaximal exercise has been found. The selection of breathing pattern seems to be unrelated to the nature of the stimulus but closely geared to the metabolic needs of ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
