Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a powerful noninvasive tool with which to study the
matching of oxygen delivery to oxygen utilization and the number of new publications …

The hyperbolic form of the power-duration relationship is rigorous and highly conserved
across species, forms of exercise and individual muscles/muscle groups. For modalities …

In most daily activities related to work or leisure, the energy for muscle work substantially
comes from oxidative metabolism. Functional limitations or impairments of this metabolism …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to monitor muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2) is rapidly
expanding into applied sports settings. However, the technology is limited due to its inability …

Abstract Resting humans transport~ 100 quintillion (1018) oxygen (O2) molecules every
second to tissues for consumption. The final, short distance (< 50 µm) from capillary to the …

Three sentinel parameters of aerobic performance are the maximal oxygen uptake (), critical
power (CP) and speed of the kinetics following exercise onset. Of these, the latter is …

thickness, muscle site, and sex on near-infrared spectroscopy derived total-[hemoglobin+ …

August Krogh twice won the prestigious international Steegen Prize, for nitrogen metabolism
(1906) and overturning the concept of active transport of gases across the pulmonary …

Background: This study aimed to report, through a systematic review of the literature, the
baseline and final reference values obtained by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) of …

Muscle deoxygenation (ie, deoxy [Hb+ Mb]) during exercise assesses the matching of
oxygen delivery (Q̇o2) to oxygen utilization (V̇o2). Until now limitations in near-infrared …
