Mitochondrial ROUTINE respiration

downin humans1

1 study
  1. Mitochondrial ROUTINE respiration is associated with respiratory exchange ratio in humans (β = -0.160, 95% CI -0.300; -0.020).

    “lower RER (β = -0.160, 95% CI -0.300; -0.020)”

Subcutaneous adipose tissue

downin humans1

1 study
  1. Respiratory exchange ratio is associated with subcutaneous adipose tissue in humans (adjusted difference = -0.16 cm; p = 0.039).

    “lower SAT (adjusted difference = -0.16 cm; p = 0.039) compared to predominant fat oxidation.”

1 study
  1. Respiratory exchange ratio is associated with visceral adipose tissue in humans (adjusted difference = 0.40 cm; p < 0.001).

    “In underweight/normal weight individuals, predominant glucose oxidation correlated with significantly higher VAT (adjusted difference = 0.40 cm; p < 0.001)”

30-second chair stand test is linked to peak oxygen uptake

In an external validation cohort, predicted peak VO₂ correlated with observed values at r = 0.654, with a root mean square error of 4.73 mL/kg/min.In an external validation cohort, predicted peak VO₂ correlated with observed values at r = 0.654, with a root mean square error of 4.73 mL/kg/min.
