The aim of the present study was to compare the oscillations of oxygenation in skeletal muscle between early and late phases in prolonged exercise. During prolonged exercise at 60 % of peak oxygen uptake ( o2) for 60 min and at rest, oxygenated hemoglobin/myoglobin (Hb/MbO2) and total Hb/Mb (THb/Mb) were determined by near-infrared spectroscopy in the vastus lateralis. Power spectra density (PSD) for the difference between Hb/MbO2 and THb/Mb (−HHb/MbO2: deoxygenation) was obtained by fast Fourier transform at rest, in the early phase (1-6 min) and in the late phase (55-60 min) in exercise. Peak PSD in the early phase was significantly higher than that at rest. There were at least three peaks of PSD in exercise. The highest peak was a band around 0.01 Hz, the next peak was a band around 0.04 Hz, and the lowest peak was a band around 0.06 Hz. PSD in the early phase was not significantly different from that in the late phase in exercise. Heart rate (HR) showed a continuous significant increase from 3 min in exercise until the end of exercise. Skin blood flow (SBF) around the early phase was significantly lower than that around the late phase. It was concluded that oscillation of oxygenation in the muscle oxygen system in the early phase is not different from that in the late phase in prolonged exercise despite cardiovascular drift., T.

Time delay in the mediation of ventilation (VE) by arterial CO2 pressure (PaCO2) was studied during recovery from short impulse-like exercises with different work loads of recovery. Subjects performed two tests including 10-s impulse like exercise with work load of 200 watts and 15-min recovery with 25 watts in test one and 50 watts in test two. V . E, end tidal CO2 pressure (PETCO2) and heart rate (HR) were measured continuously during rest, warming up, exercise and recovery. PaCO2 was estimated from PETCO2 and tidal volume (VT). Results showed that predicted arterial CO2 pressure (PaCO2 pre) increased during recovery in both tests. In both tests, VE increased and peaked at the end of exercise. VE decreased in the first few seconds of recovery but started to increase again. The highest correlation coefficient between PaCO2 pre and V . E was obtained in the time delay of 7 s (r=0.854) in test one and in time delays of 6 s (r=0.451) and 31 s (r=0.567) in test two. HR was significantly higher in test two than in test one. These results indicate that PaCO2 pre drives VE with a time delay and that higher work intensity induces a shorter time delay., R. Afroundeh, T. Arimitsu, R. Yamanaka, C. S. Lian, K. Shirakawa, T.

It was hypothesized that an oscillation of tissue oxygen index (TOI) determined by near-infrared spectroscopy during recovery from exercise occurs due to feedback control of adenosine triphosphate and that frequency of the oscillation is affected by blood pH. In order to examine these hypotheses, we aimed 1) to determine whether there is an oscillation of TOI during recovery from exercise and 2) to determine the effect of blood pH on frequency of the oscillation of TOI. Three exercises were performed with exercise intensities of 30 % and 70 % peak oxygen uptake (Vo2peak) for 12 min and with exercise intensity of 70 % Vo2peak for 30 s. TOI during recovery from the exercise was analyzed by fast Fourier transform in order to obtain power spectra density (PSD). There was a significant difference in the frequency at which maximal PSD of TOI appeared (Fmax) between the exercises with 70 % Vo2peak for 12 min (0.0039±0 Hz) and for 30 s (0.0061±0.0028 Hz). However, there was no significant difference in Fmax between the exercises with 30 % (0.0043±0.0013 Hz) and with 70 % Vo2peak for 12 min despite differences in blood pH and blood lactate from the warmed fingertips. It is concluded that there was an oscillation in TOI during recovery from the three exercises. It was not clearly shown that there was an effect of blood pH on Fmax., T. Yano, R. Afroundeh, K.

We investigated ventilation (V . E) control factors during recovery from light impulse-like exercise (100 watts) with a duration of 20 s. Blood ions and gases were measured at rest and during recovery. V . E, end tidal CO2 pressure (PETCO2) and respiratory exchange ratio (RER) were measured continuously during rest, exercise and recovery periods. Arterial CO2 pressure (PaCO2 pre) was estimated from PETCO2 and tidal volume (VT). RER at 20 s of exercise and until 50 s during recovery was significantly lower than RER at rest. Despite no change in arterialized blood pH level, PaCO2 pre was significantly higher in the last 10 s of exercise and until 70 s during recovery than the resting value. V . E increased during exercise and then decreased during recovery; however, it was elevated and was significantly higher than the resting value until 155 s (p<0.05). There was a significant relationship between V . E and PaCO2 pre during the first 70 s of recovery in each subject. The results suggest that PaCO2 drives V . E during the first 70 s of recovery after light impulse-like exercise. Elevated V . E in the interval from 70 s until 155 s during recovery might be due to neural factors., R. Afroundeh, ...
