Woorons X, Daussin F, Combes A, Mucci P. Physiological Responses to Supramaximal Running Exercise with End-Expiratory Breath Holding up to the Breaking Point. J Hum Kinet 2024; 90:111-123. [PMID: 38380296 PMCID: PMC10875693 DOI: 10.5114/jhk/174465] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/24/2023] [Indexed: 02/22/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to assess the physiological responses to repeated running exercise performed at supramaximal intensity and with end-expiratory breath holding (EEBH) up to the breaking point. Eight male runners participated in two running testing sessions on a motorized treadmill. In the first session, participants performed two sets of 8 repetitions at 125% of maximal aerobic velocity and with maximum EEBH. Each repetition started at the onset of EEBH and ended at its release. In the second session, participants replicated the same procedure, but with unrestricted breathing (URB). The change in cerebral and muscle oxygenation (Δ[Hbdiff]), total haemoglobin concentration (Δ[THb]) and muscle reoxygenation were continuously assessed. End-tidal oxygen (PETO2) and carbon dioxide pressure (PETCO2), arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate (HR) were also measured throughout exercise.On average, EEBH was maintained for 10.1 ± 1 s. At the breaking point of EEBH, PETO2 decreased to 54.1 ± 8 mmHg, whereas PETCO2 increased to 74.8 ± 3.1 mmHg. At the end of repetitions, SpO2 (nadir values 74.9 ± 5.0 vs. 95.7 ± 0.8%) and HR were lower with EEBH than with URB. Cerebral and muscle Δ[Hbdiff] were also lower with EEBH, whereas this condition induced higher cerebral and muscle Δ[THb] and greater muscle reoxygenation. This study showed that performing repeated bouts of supramaximal running exercises with EEBH up to the breaking point induced a fall in arterial, cerebral and muscle oxygenation compared with the URB condition. These phenomena were accompanied by increases in regional blood volume likely resulting from compensatory vasodilation to preserve oxygen delivery to the brain and muscles.

J Appl Physiol (1985) 2023; 134:1063-1074. [PMID: 36927143 PMCID: PMC10125031 DOI: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00406.2022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Revised: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
A linear relationship between skeletal muscle venous ([Formula: see text]) and oxygenated (ΔHbMbO2,N) or deoxygenated (ΔHHbMbN) near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) signals suggest a main hemoglobin (Hb) contribution to the NIRS signal. However, experimental, and computational evidence supports a significant contribution of myoglobin (Mb) to the NIRS. Venous and NIRS measurements from a canine model of muscle oxidative metabolism (Sun Y, Ferguson BS, Rogatzki MJ, McDonald JR, Gladden LB. Med Sci Sports Exerc 48(10):2013-2020, 2016) were integrated into a computational model of muscle O2 transport and utilization to evaluate whether the relationship between venous and NIRS oxygenation can be affected by a significant Mb contribution to the NIRS signals. The mathematical model predicted well the measure of the changes of [Formula: see text] and NIRS signals for different O2 delivery conditions (blood flow, arterial O2 content) in muscle at rest (T1, T2) and during contraction (T3). Furthermore, computational analysis indicates that for adequate O2 delivery, Mb contribution to NIRS signals was significant (20%-30%) even in the presence of a linear [Formula: see text]-NIRS relationship; for a reduced O2 delivery the nonlinearity of the [Formula: see text]-NIRS relationship was related to the Mb contribution (50%). In this case (T3), the deviation from linearity is observed when O2 delivery is reduced from 1.3 to 0.7 L kg-1·min-1 ([Formula: see text] < 10 mLO2 100 mL-1) and Mb saturation decreased from 85% to 40% corresponding to an increase of the Mb contribution to ΔHHbMbN from 15% to 50% and the contribution to ΔHbMbO2,N from 0% to 30%. In contrast to a common assumption, our model indicates that both NIRS signals (ΔHHbMbN and ΔHbMbO2,N are significantly affected by Hb and Mb oxygenation changes.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Within the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) signal, the contribution from hemoglobin is indistinguishable from that of myoglobin. A computation analysis indicates that a linear relationship between muscle venous oxygen content and NIRS signals does not necessarily indicate a negligible myoglobin contribution to the NIRS signal. A reduced oxygen delivery increases the myoglobin contribution to the NIRS signal. The integrative approach proposed is a powerful way to assist in interpreting the elements from which the NIRS signals are derived.

Agreement of somatic and renal near-infrared spectroscopy with reference blood samples during a controlled hypoxia sequence: a healthy volunteer study. J Clin Monit Comput 2022; 37:805-814. [PMID: 36463540 PMCID: PMC10175462 DOI: 10.1007/s10877-022-00944-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022]
Abstract
AbstractPurpose: O3® Regional Oximetry (Masimo Corporation, California, USA) is validated for cerebral oximetry. We aimed to assess agreement of somatic and renal near-infrared spectroscopy with reference blood samples. Methods: O3 sensors were placed bilaterally on the quadriceps and flank of 26 healthy volunteers. A stepped, controlled hypoxia sequence was performed by adding a mixture of nitrogen and room air to the breathing circuit. O3-derived oxygen saturation values were obtained at baseline and at six decremental saturation levels (5% steps). Blood samples (radial artery, iliac vein (somatic reference) and renal vein) were obtained at each step. Reference values were calculated as: 0.7 × venous saturation + 0.3 × arterial saturation. The agreement between O3-derived values with blood reference values was assessed by calculating root-mean-square error accuracy and Bland-Altman plots. Results: The root-mean-square error accuracy was 6.0% between quadriceps oxygen saturation and somatic reference values. The mean bias was 0.8%, with limits of agreement from -7.7 to 9.3%. These were 5.1% and 0.6% (-8.3 to 9.5%) for flank oxygen saturation and somatic reference values, respectively, and 7.7% and -4.9% (-15.0 to 5.2%) for flank oxygen saturation and renal reference values. The kidney depth was 3.1 ± 0.9 cm below the skin. Conclusion: O3 regional oximetry can be used on the quadriceps and flank to monitor somatic saturation, yet has a saturation-level dependent bias. O3-derived values obtained at the flank underestimated renal reference values. Additionally, it is unlikely that the flank sensors did directly measure renal tissue.

Quantitative Changes in Muscular and Capillary Oxygen Desaturation Measured by Optical Sensors during Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Titration for Obstructive Sleep Apnea. BIOSENSORS 2021; 12:bios12010003. [PMID: 35049631 PMCID: PMC8774245 DOI: 10.3390/bios12010003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2021] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 12/19/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder, and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the most effective treatment. Poor adherence is one of the major challenges in CPAP therapy. The recent boom of wearable optical sensors measuring oxygen saturation makes at-home multiple-night CPAP titrations possible, which may essentially improve the adherence of CPAP therapy by optimizing its pressure in a real-life setting economically. We tested whether the oxygen desaturations (ODs) measured in the arm muscle (arm_OD) by gold-standard frequency-domain multi-distance near-infrared spectroscopy (FDMD-NIRS) change quantitatively with titrated CPAP pressures in OSA patients together with polysomnography. We found that the arm_OD (2.08 ± 1.23%, mean ± standard deviation) was significantly smaller (p-value < 0.0001) than the fingertip OD (finger_OD) (4.46 ± 2.37%) measured by a polysomnography pulse oximeter. Linear mixed-effects models suggested that CPAP pressure was a significant predictor for finger_OD but not for arm_OD. Since FDMD-NIRS measures a mixture of arterial and venous OD, whereas a fingertip pulse oximeter measures arterial OD, our results of no association between arm_OD and finger_OD indicate that the arm_OD mainly represented venous desaturation. Arm_OD measured by optical sensors used for wearables may not be a suitable indicator of the CPAP titration effectiveness.

BIOMEDICAL OPTICS EXPRESS 2021; 12:5023-5035.

Abstract
In addition to supplying oxygen molecule O2 for metabolic functions during the adaptation to exercise, blood also plays a critical role in heat dissipation for core temperature stabilization. This study investigates the status of hemodynamic oxygenation in the forearm's skin tissue of three participants during a complete ergometer exercise from the resting to exercising, and to recovering conditions using a three-wavelength frequency-domain diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (FD DRS) alongside the monitoring of heartbeat rate and skin temperature. The FD DRS system was synchronized with radiofrequency (RF)-modulated input photon sources and the respective output to extract time-course absorption and scattering coefficients of the skin tissue, which, through the fitting of lambert's law of absorbance, can be used to determine the concentration of oxygenated/deoxygenated hemoglobin molecules, and consequentially, the oxygen saturation of skin tissue and total hemoglobin (THb) concentration. Expressly, a sudden jump in heartbeat rate at the beginning of the exercise, a temporal lag of the rising edge of skin temperature behind that of the THb concentration in the procession of step-wise incremental working intensity, and the uprising of THb in the exhaustion zone in responses to the physiological adaptation to exercise were identified. Finally, conclusive remarks were drawn that the FD DRS system is useful in extracting the hemodynamic properties of forearm skin which is often being neglected in previous exercise physiology studies by DRS-related techniques. The detailed variation of hemodynamic and optical scattering parameters of forearm skin elucidated in the studies can be applied for the analysis of athletes' physiological status, and may be a potential reference for the design of future wearable devices.

Zhang Z, Qi M, Hügli G, Khatami R. The Challenges and Pitfalls of Detecting Sleep Hypopnea Using a Wearable Optical Sensor: Comparative Study. J Med Internet Res 2021; 23:e24171. [PMID: 34326039 PMCID: PMC8367170 DOI: 10.2196/24171] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2020] [Revised: 02/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most prevalent respiratory sleep disorder occurring in 9% to 38% of the general population. About 90% of patients with suspected OSA remain undiagnosed due to the lack of sleep laboratories or specialists and the high cost of gold-standard in-lab polysomnography diagnosis, leading to a decreased quality of life and increased health care burden in cardio- and cerebrovascular diseases. Wearable sleep trackers like smartwatches and armbands are booming, creating a hope for cost-efficient at-home OSA diagnosis and assessment of treatment (eg, continuous positive airway pressure [CPAP] therapy) effectiveness. However, such wearables are currently still not available and cannot be used to detect sleep hypopnea. Sleep hypopnea is defined by ≥30% drop in breathing and an at least 3% drop in peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (Spo2) measured at the fingertip. Whether the conventional measures of oxygen desaturation (OD) at the fingertip and at the arm or wrist are identical is essentially unknown. Objective We aimed to compare event-by-event arm OD (arm_OD) with fingertip OD (finger_OD) in sleep hypopneas during both naïve sleep and CPAP therapy. Methods Thirty patients with OSA underwent an incremental, stepwise CPAP titration protocol during all-night in-lab video-polysomnography monitoring (ie, 1-h baseline sleep without CPAP followed by stepwise increments of 1 cmH2O pressure per hour starting from 5 to 8 cmH2O depending on the individual). Arm_OD of the left biceps muscle and finger_OD of the left index fingertip in sleep hypopneas were simultaneously measured by frequency-domain near-infrared spectroscopy and video-polysomnography photoplethysmography, respectively. Bland-Altman plots were used to illustrate the agreements between arm_OD and finger_OD during baseline sleep and under CPAP. We used t tests to determine whether these measurements significantly differed. Results In total, 534 obstructive apneas and 2185 hypopneas were recorded. Of the 2185 hypopneas, 668 (30.57%) were collected during baseline sleep and 1517 (69.43%), during CPAP sleep. The mean difference between finger_OD and arm_OD was 2.86% (95% CI 2.67%-3.06%, t667=28.28; P<.001; 95% limits of agreement [LoA] –2.27%, 8.00%) during baseline sleep and 1.83% (95% CI 1.72%-1.94%, t1516=31.99; P<.001; 95% LoA –2.54%, 6.19%) during CPAP. Using the standard criterion of 3% saturation drop, arm_OD only recognized 16.32% (109/668) and 14.90% (226/1517) of hypopneas at baseline and during CPAP, respectively. Conclusions arm_OD is 2% to 3% lower than standard finger_OD in sleep hypopnea, probably because the measured arm_OD originates physiologically from arterioles, venules, and capillaries; thus, the venous blood adversely affects its value. Our findings demonstrate that the standard criterion of ≥3% OD drop at the arm or wrist is not suitable to define hypopnea because it could provide large false-negative results in diagnosing OSA and assessing CPAP treatment effectiveness.

Abstract
Hypoxia in working muscles during exercise may be associated with increased oxidative stress. Inhalation of hyperoxic gas diminishes the hypoxia within working muscles during exercise. Exposure to hyperoxia increases the expression of the antioxidant HSP27. We investigated the effects of acute high-intensity interval exercise (HIE) under hyperoxia on HSP27 levels and oxidative stress responses. Eight male subjects participated in two experiments: 1) normoxic HIE (NHIE) and 2) hyperoxic (60 % oxygen) HIE (HHIE). HIE consisted of four 30-s all-out cycling bouts with 4-min rest between bouts. Levels of serum oxidative stress markers (d-ROMs and LPO), HSP27, BAP, IL-6, and TNF-α significantly increased after both trials. The HIE-induced changes in d-ROMs, LPO, and HSP27 levels were significantly lower in the HHIE trial than in the NHIE trial. These findings suggest that inhaling hyperoxic gas during exercise might diminish oxidative stress induced by all-out HIE.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has become an increasingly valuable tool to monitor tissue oxygenation (Toxy) in vivo. Observations of changes in the absorption of light with Toxy have been recognized as early as 1876, leading to a milestone NIRS paper by Jöbsis in 1977. Changes in the absorption and scatting of light in the 700-850-nm range has been successfully used to evaluate Toxy. The most practical devices use continuous-wave light providing relative values of Toxy. Phase-modulated or pulsed light can monitor both absorption and scattering providing more accurate signals. NIRS provides excellent time resolution (~ 10 Hz), and multiple source-detector pairs can be used to provide low-resolution imaging. NIRS has been applied to a wide range of populations. Continued development of NIRS devices in terms of lower cost, better detection of both absorption and scattering, and smaller size will lead to a promising future for NIRS studies.

Abstract
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 to convey quantifiable values. A test battery to assess reliability and validity of a 0% to 100% scale modeled by a commercially available NIRS device was established. This test battery applies a commonly used technique, the arterial occlusion method (AOM) to assess repeatability, reproducibility, and face validity. A total of 22 participants completed the test battery to scrutinize the 0% to 100% scale provided by the device. All participants underwent repeated AOM tests in passive and active conditions. The SmO2 minimum and SmO2 maximum values were obtained from the AOM and were used in the subsequent analysis. Repeatability and reproducibility were tested for equivalency and Bland-Altman plots were generated. Face validity was assessed by testing SmO2 values against an a priori; defined threshold for mixed venous blood during AOM response. The device exhibits an appropriately functional 0% to 100% scale that is reliable in terms of repeatability and reproducibility. Under the conditions applied in the test battery design, the device is considered valid for application in sports.

Interpretation of Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) Signals in Skeletal Muscle. J Funct Morphol Kinesiol 2019; 4:jfmk4020028.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) uses the relative absorption of light at 850 and 760 nm to determine skeletal muscle oxygen saturation. Previous studies have used the ratio of both signals to report muscle oxygen saturation. PURPOSE The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the different approaches used to represent muscle oxygen saturation and to evaluate the pulsations of oxygenated hemoglobin/myoglobin (O2heme) and deoxygenated hemoglobin/myoglobin (Heme) signals. METHOD Twelve participants, aged 20-29 years, were tested on the forearm flexor muscles using continuous-wave NIRS at rest. Measurements were taken during 2-3 min rest, physiological calibration (5 min ischemia), and reperfusion. Ten participants were included in the study analysis. RESULTS There was a significant difference in pulse size between O2heme and Heme signals at the three locations (p < 0.05). Resting oxygen saturation was 58.8% + 9.2%, 69.6% + 3.9%, and 89.2% + 6.9% when calibrated using O2heme, the tissue oxygenation/saturation index (TSI), and Heme, respectively. CONCLUSION The difference in magnitude of O2heme and Heme pulses with each heartbeat might suggest different anatomical locations of these signals, for which calibrating with just one of the signals instead of the ratio of both is proposed. Calculations of physiological calibration must account for increased blood volume in the tissue because of the changes in blood volume, which appear to be primarily from the O2heme signal. Resting oxygen levels calibrated with Heme agree with theoretical oxygen saturation.

Abstract
Considerable interindividual differences in the Q˙-V˙O2 relationship during exercise have been documented but implications for submaximal exercise tolerance have not been considered. We tested the hypothesis that these interindividual differences were associated with differences in exercising muscle deoxygenation and ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) across a range of submaximal exercise intensities. A total of 31 (21 ± 3 years) healthy recreationally active males performed an incremental exercise test to exhaustion 24 h following a resting muscle biopsy. Cardiac output (Q˙ L/min; inert gas rebreathe), oxygen uptake (V˙O2 L/min; breath-by-breath pulmonary gas exchange), quadriceps saturation (near infrared spectroscopy) and exercise tolerance (6-20; Borg Scale RPE) were measured. The Q˙-V˙O2 relationship from 40 to 160 W was used to partition individuals post hoc into higher (n = 10; 6.3 ± 0.4) versus lower (n = 10; 3.7 ± 0.4, P < 0.001) responders. The Q˙-V˙O2 difference between responder types was not explained by arterial oxygen content differences (P = 0.5) or peripheral skeletal muscle characteristics (P from 0.1 to 0.8) but was strongly associated with stroke volume (P < 0.05). Despite considerable Q˙-V˙O2 difference between groups, no difference in quadriceps deoxygenation was observed during exercise (all P > 0.4). Lower cardiac responders had greater leg (P = 0.027) and whole body (P = 0.03) RPE only at 185 W, but this represented a higher %peak V˙O2 in lower cardiac responders (87 ± 15% vs. 66 ± 12%, P = 0.005). Substantially lower Q˙-V˙O2 in the lower responder group did not result in altered RPE or exercising muscle deoxygenation. This suggests substantial recruitment of blood flow redistribution in the lower responder group as part of protecting matching of exercising muscle oxygen delivery to demand.

Abstract
The purpose of the study was to compare muscle oxygenation as measured by two portable, wireless near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) devices under resting and dynamic conditions. A recently developed low-cost NIRS device (MOXY) was compared against an established PortaMon system that makes use of the spatially resolved spectroscopy algorithm. The influence of increasing external pressure on tissue oxygen saturation index (TSI) indicated that both devices are stable between 2 and 20 mmHg. However, above this pressure, MOXY reports declining TSI values. Analysis of adipose tissue thickness (ATT) and TSI shows a significant, nonlinear difference between devices at rest. The devices report similar TSI (%) values at a low ATT (<7 mm) (PortaMon minus MOXY difference is +1.1±2.8%) with the major subsequent change between the devices occurring between 7 and 10 mm; at ATT values >10 mm the difference remains constant (-14.7±2.8%). The most likely explanation for this difference is the small source-detector separation (2.5 cm) in the MOXY resulting in lower tissue penetration into muscle in subjects with higher ATT. Interday test-retest reliability of resting TSI was evaluated on five separate occasions, with the PortaMon reporting a lower coefficient of variation (1.8% to 2.5% versus 5.7% to 6.2%). In studies on male subjects with low ATT, decreases in the TSI were strongly correlated during isometric exercise, arterial occlusion, and incremental arm crank exercise. However, the MOXY reports a greater dynamic range, particularly during ischemia induced by isometric contraction or occlusion (Δ74.3% versus Δ43.7%; hyperemia MAX-occlusion MIN). This study shows that in this subject group both MOXY and PortaMon produce physiologically credible TSI measures during rest and exercise. However, the absolute values obtained during exercise are generally not comparable between devices unless corrected by physiological calibration following an arterial occlusion.

Abstract
PURPOSE The study aimed to examine the relationship between near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) signals and venous hemoglobin oxygen saturation (O2Hb%) and venous oxygen concentration (CvO2). METHODS Gastrocnemius muscles (GS) in six dogs were surgically isolated and pump perfused. NIRS signals were recorded, and venous blood samples were collected at constant flow rates (control flow, high flow, and low flow) at rest as well as during electrically stimulated tetanic muscle contractions at rates of one contraction per 2 s (1/2 s) and two contractions per 3 s (2/3 s). Similar data were also collected at three different inspired O2 percentages (12%, 21%, and 100%) with constant blood flow. RESULTS Complete data from five animals were analyzed; all data from one animal were deleted because of erratic oxy-NIRS signals. Venous O2Hb% ranged from 7.6% to 97.5% across the various experimental conditions. After the NIRS signals were normalized to the physiological range, a high linear correlation was seen between the deoxygenated heme signal (HHbMb%) and the venous O2Hb% (R = 0.92 ± 0.05), between the oxygenated heme signal (HbMbO2%) and the venous O2Hb% (R = 0.92 ± 0.03), between the HHbMb% and the CvO2 (R = 0.89 ± 0.06), and between the HbMbO2% and the CvO2 (R = 0.90 ± 0.05). The overall relationships between HHbMb%, HbMbO2%, and venous O2Hb% as well as between HHbMb%, HbMbO2%, and CvO2 were also linear and highly correlated with R values ranging from 0.81 to 0.90. CONCLUSION In this controlled canine muscle model, NIRS signals are highly correlated with venous O2Hb% and CvO2 across a wide range of physiological conditions. The practical application of our results is that for an individual muscle or perhaps muscle group, normalized NIRS HHbMb and HbMbO2 signals accurately reflect the mean venous O2 saturation of the interrogated muscle tissue.

Abstract
We describe the validation methodology for the NIRS based FORE-SIGHT ELITE® (CAS Medical Systems, Inc., Branford, CT, USA) tissue oximeter for cerebral and somatic tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) measurements for adult subjects submitted to the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to obtain clearance for clinical use. This validation methodology evolved from a history of NIRS validations in the literature and FDA recommended use of Deming regression and bootstrapping statistical validation methods. For cerebral validation, forehead cerebral StO2 measurements were compared to a weighted 70:30 reference (REF CXB) of co-oximeter internal jugular venous and arterial blood saturation of healthy adult subjects during a controlled hypoxia sequence, with a sensor placed on the forehead. For somatic validation, somatic StO2 measurements were compared to a weighted 70:30 reference (REF CXS) of co-oximetry central venous and arterial saturation values following a similar protocol, with sensors place on the flank, quadriceps muscle, and calf muscle. With informed consent, 25 subjects successfully completed the cerebral validation study. The bias and precision (1 SD) of cerebral StO2 compared to REF CXB was −0.14 ± 3.07%. With informed consent, 24 subjects successfully completed the somatic validation study. The bias and precision of somatic StO2 compared to REF CXS was 0.04 ± 4.22% from the average of flank, quadriceps, and calf StO2 measurements to best represent the global whole body REF CXS. The NIRS validation methods presented potentially provide a reliable means to test NIRS monitors and qualify them for clinical use.

Abstract
This is a case series study with the objective of comparing two motion sensor automated strategies to avert knee buckle during functional electrical stimulation (FES)-standing against a conventional hand-controlled (HC) FES approach. The research was conducted in a clinical exercise laboratory gymnasium at the University of Sydney, Australia. The automated strategies, Aut-A and Aut-B, applied fixed and variable changes of neurostimulation, respectively, in quadriceps amplitude to precisely control knee extension during standing. HC was an "on-demand" increase of stimulation amplitude to maintain stance. Finally, maximal FES amplitude (MA) was used as a control condition, whereby knee buckle was prevented by maximal isometric muscle recruitment. Four AIS-A paraplegics undertook 4 days of testing each, and each assessment day comprised three FES standing trials using the same strategy. Cardiorespiratory responses were recorded, and quadriceps muscle oxygenation was quantified using near-infrared spectroscopy. For all subjects, the longest standing times were observed during Aut-A, followed by Aut-B, and then HC and MA. The standing times of the automated strategies were superior to HC by 9-64%. Apart from a lower heart rates during standing (P = 0.034), the automation of knee extension did not promote different cardiorespiratory responses compared with HC. The standing times during MA were significantly shorter than during the automated or "on-demand" strategies (by 80-250%). In fact, the higher isometric-evoked quadriceps contraction during MA resulted in a greater oxygen demand (P < 0.0001) and wider arteriovenous oxygen extraction (P = 0.08) when compared with the other strategies. In conclusion, even though increased standing times were demonstrated using automated control of knee extension, physiological benefits compared with HC were not evident.

Abstract
The influence of subcutaneous adipose tissue (ATT) and oxygen (O2) delivery has been poorly defined in frequency domain (FD) near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the possible influence of these variables on all FD NIRS responses using a reliable protocol. Moreover, these influences were also investigated when using relative oxy- and deoxyhemoglobin and -myoglobin (oxy[Hb + Mb] and deoxy[Hb + Mb]) values (in %). A regression analysis was carried out for ATT and maximal-minimum oxy[Hb + Mb], deoxy[Hb + Mb], oxygen saturation (SmO2), and total hemoglobin (totHb) amplitudes during an incremental cyclic contraction protocol (ICCP) in a group of 45 participants. Moreover, the same analysis was carried out between subcutaneous ATT and the relative oxy- and deoxy[Hb + Mb] values (in %). In the second part of this study, a regression analysis was performed for peak forearm blood flow (FBF) during ICCP and the absolute and relative NIRS values in a group of 37 participants. Significant exponential correlation coefficients were found between ATT and deoxy[Hb + Mb] (r = 0.53; P < 0.001), oxy[Hb + Mb] (r = 0.57; P < 0.001), and SmO2 amplitudes (r = 0.57; P < 0.001). No significant relations were found between ATT and relative oxy[Hb + Mb] (r = 0.37; P = 0.07) and deoxy[Hb + Mb] (r = 0.09; P = 0.82). Significant positive correlation coefficients were found between force at exhaustion and maximal FBF (r = 0.66; P < 0.001), maximal differences in deoxy[Hb + Mb] (r = 0.353; P = 0.032) and totHb (r = 0.512; P = 0.002) while no significant correlation coefficients were found between these maximal force values and maximal differences in oxy[Hb + Mb] (r = -0.267; P = 0.111) and SmO2 (r = -0.267; P = 0.111). Significant linear correlation coefficients were found between FBF and deoxy[Hb + Mb] (r = 0.51; P = 0.001), oxy[Hb + Mb] (r = -0.50; P = 0.001), SmO2 (r = -0.54; P = 0.001), and totHb amplitude (r = 0.61; P < 0.001). No significant correlations were found when using relative oxy[Hb + Mb] (r = -0.01; P = 0.957) and deoxy[Hb + Mb] (r = -0.02; P = 0.895). Based on these findings, caution is advised when using NIRS values, as subcutaneous ATT and O2 delivery significantly influence NIRS measurements. To eliminate these influences, use of relative deoxy[Hb + Mb] is advised, especially in clinical settings or in people with a higher subcutaneous ATT layer.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of l-citrulline (Cit) and l-arginine (Arg) supplementation on nitric oxide (NO) biomarkers, pulmonary O2 uptake (V̇o2) kinetics, and exercise performance. In a randomized, placebo (Pla)-controlled, crossover study, 10 healthy adult men completed moderate- and severe-intensity cycling exercise on days 6 and 7 of a 7-day supplementation period with Pla, Arg (6 g/day), and Cit (6 g/day). Compared with Pla, plasma Arg concentration was increased by a similar magnitude with Arg and Cit supplementation, but plasma Cit concentration was only increased ( P < 0.001) with Cit supplementation. Plasma nitrite (NO2−) concentration was increased with Arg supplementation ( P < 0.05) and tended to increase with Cit supplementation ( P = 0.08) compared with Pla (83 ± 25, 106 ± 41, and 100 ± 38 nM with Pla, Arg, and Cit, respectively); however, mean arterial blood pressure was only lower ( P < 0.05) after Cit supplementation. The steady-state V̇o2 amplitude during moderate-intensity cycle exercise was not significantly different between supplements, but Cit lowered the V̇o2 mean response time (59 ± 8 and 53 ± 5 s with Pla and Cit, respectively, P < 0.05) during severe-intensity exercise, improved tolerance to severe-intensity exercise (589 ± 101 and 661 ± 107 s with Pla and Cit, respectively), and increased the total amount of work completed in the exercise performance test (123 ± 18 and 125 ± 19 kJ with Pla and Cit, respectively, P < 0.05). These variables were not altered by Arg supplementation ( P > 0.05). In conclusion, these results suggest that short-term Cit, but not Arg, supplementation can improve blood pressure, V̇o2 kinetics, and exercise performance in healthy adults.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle deoxygenated hemoglobin and myoglobin concentration ([HHb]), assessed by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), is commonly used as a surrogate of regional O2 extraction (reflecting the O2 delivery-to-consumption ratio, Q̇/V̇o2). However, [HHb] change (Δ[HHb]) is also influenced by capillary-venous heme concentration, and/or small blood vessel volume (reflected in total heme; [THb]). We tested the hypotheses that Δ[HHb] is associated with O2 extraction, and insensitive to [THb], over a wide range of Q̇/V̇o2 elicited by passive head-up tilt (HUT; 10-min, 15° increments, between -10° and 75°). Steady-state common femoral artery blood flow (FBF) was measured by echo-Doppler, and time-resolved NIRS measured [HHb] and [THb] of vastus lateralis (VL) and gastrocnemius (GS) in 13 men. EMG confirmed muscles were inactive. During HUT in VL [HHb] increased linearly (57 ± 10 to 101 ± 16 μM; P < 0.05 above 15°) and was associated (r(2) ∼ 0.80) with the reduction in FBF (618 ± 75 ml/min at 0° to 268 ± 52 ml/min at 75°; P < 0.05 above 30°) and the increase in [THb] (228 ± 30 vs. 252 ± 32 μM; P < 0.05 above 15°). GS response was qualitatively similar to VL. However, there was wide variation within and among individuals, such that the overall limits of agreement between Δ[HHb] and ΔFBF ranged from -35 to +19% across both muscles. Neither knowledge of tissue O2 saturation nor vascular compliance could appropriately account for the Δ[HHb]-ΔFBF dissociation. Thus, under passive tilt, [HHb] is influenced by Q̇/V̇o2, as well as microvascular hematocrit and/or tissue blood vessel volume, complicating its use as a noninvasive surrogate for muscle microvascular O2 extraction.

Abstract
Heterogeneity in the distribution of both blood flow (Q̇) and O2 consumption (V̇O2) has not been assessed by near-infrared spectroscopy in exercising normal human muscle. We used near-infrared spectroscopy to measure the regional distribution of Q̇ and V̇O2 in six trained cyclists at rest and during constant-load exercise (unloaded pedaling, 20%, 50%, and 80% of peak Watts) in both normoxia and hypoxia (inspired O2 fraction = 0.12). Over six optodes over the upper, middle, and lower vastus lateralis, we recorded 1) indocyanine green dye inflow after intravenous injection to measure Q̇; and 2) fractional tissue O2 saturation (StiO2) to estimate local V̇O2-to-Q̇ ratios (V̇o2/Q̇). Varying both exercise intensity and inspired O2 fraction provided a (directly measured) femoral venous O2 saturation range from about 10 to 70%, and a correspondingly wide range in StiO2. Mean Q̇-weighted StiO2 over the six optodes related linearly to femoral venous O2 saturation in each subject. We used this relationship to compute local muscle venous blood O2 saturation from StiO2 recorded at each optode, from which local V̇O2/Q̇ could be calculated by the Fick principle. Multiplying regional V̇O2/Q̇ by Q̇ yielded the corresponding local V̇O2. While six optodes along only in one muscle may not fully capture the extent of heterogeneity, relative dispersion of both Q̇ and V̇O2 was ∼0.4 under all conditions, while that for V̇O2/Q̇ was minimal (only ∼0.1), indicating in fit young subjects 1) a strong capacity to regulate Q̇ according to regional metabolic need; and 2) a likely minimal impact of heterogeneity on muscle O2 availability.

Abstract
New patient monitoring technologies can noninvasively and directly provide an assessment of the adequacy of tissue perfusion through the simultaneous determination of muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2) and muscle pH (pHm). Non-pulsatile near infrared spectroscopy is used to determine these microvascular parameters. Two separate studies were conducted using an isolated perfused swine limb preparation to widely vary venous blood oxygen saturation (SviO2) and pH (pHvi) to assess the accuracy of a noninvasive sensor with the capability to simultaneously measure both parameters. The isolated limb model is necessary to establish equilibrium between the venous output of the perfusion circuit and the venule measurement of the spectroscopic sensor. The average absolute difference between SmO2 and SviO2 determined over 50 conditions of SviO2 between 13% and 83% on 3 pig limbs was 3.8% and the coefficient of determination (R(2)) was 0.95. The average absolute difference between pHm and pHvi determined over 69 conditions of pHvi between pHvi 6.9 and pHvi 7.5 on 3 pig limbs was 0.045 pH units with an R(2) of 0.92. Measured accuracy was acceptable to support clinically relevant decision making for the assessment of impaired tissue perfusion and acidosis. Sensors were also evaluated on human subjects. There was no statistical difference in SmO2 by gender or location when multiple sensors were evaluated on the right and left calf, deltoid, and thigh of resting men and women (N = 33). SmO2 precision for subjects at rest was 5.6% over the six locations with four different sensors.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of training on peripheral muscular performance and oxygenation during exercise and recovery in children with congenital heart diseases (CHD). Eighteen patients with CHD aged 12 to 15 years were randomly assigned into either an individualized 12-week aerobic cycling training group (TG) or a control group (CG). Maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) and endurance at 50% MVC (time to exhaustion, Tlim) of the knee extensors were measured before and after training. During the 50% MVC exercise and recovery, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was used to assess the fall in muscle oxygenation, i.e., deoxygenation ([Formula: see text]) of the vastus lateralis, the mean rate of decrease in muscle oxygenation, the half time of recovery (T1/2R), and the recovery speed to maximal oxygenation (RS). There was no effect of time on any parameter in the CG. After training, significant improvements were observed in TG for MVC (101.6 ± 14.0 vs. 120.2 ± 19.4 N·m, p < 0.01) and Tlim (66.2 ± 22.6 vs. 86.0 ± 23.0 s, p< 0.01). Increased oxygenation (0.20 ± 0.13 vs. 0.15 ± 0.07 a.u., p < 0.01) and faster mean rate of decrease in muscle oxygenation were also shown after training in TG (1.22 ± 0.45 vs. 1.71 ± 0.78%·s–1, p < 0.001). Moreover, a shorter recovery time was observed in TG after training for T1/2R (27.2 ± 6.1 vs. 20.8 ± 4.2 s, p < 0.01) and RS (63.1 ± 18.4 vs. 50.3 ± 11.4 s, p < 0.01). A significant relationship between the change in [Formula: see text] and both MVC (r = 0.95, p < 0.001) and Tlim (r = 0.90, p < 0.001) in TG was observed. We concluded that exercise training improves peripheral muscular function by enhancing strength and endurance performance in children with CHD. This improvement was associated with increased oxygenation of peripheral muscles and faster recovery.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been shown to be one of the tools that can measure oxygenation in muscle and other tissues in vivo. This review paper highlights the progress, specifically in this decade, that has been made for evaluating skeletal muscle oxygenation and oxidative energy metabolism in sport, health and clinical sciences. Development of NIRS technologies has focused on improving quantification of the signal using multiple wavelengths to solve for absorption and scattering coefficients, multiple pathlengths to correct for the influence of superficial skin and fat, and time-resolved and phase-modulated light sources to determine optical pathlengths. In addition, advances in optical imaging with multiple source and detector pairs as well as portability using small wireless detectors have expanded the usefulness of the devices. NIRS measurements have provided information on oxidative metabolism in various athletes during localized exercise and whole-body exercise, as well as training-induced adaptations. Furthermore, NIRS technology has been used in the study of a number of chronic health conditions. Future developments of NIRS technology will include enhancing signal quantification. In addition, advances in NIRS imaging and portability promise to transform how measurements of oxygen utilization are obtained in the future.

Abstract
The quantitative contributions of hemoglobin and myoglobin oxygenation in skeletal muscle depend on physiological factors, especially muscle blood flow (Q( m )) and capillary permeability-surface area (PS). Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can be used to quantify total heme oxidation, but it is unable to distinguish between hemoglobin and myoglobin. Therefore, a mechanistic computational model has been developed to distinguish the contributions of oxygenated hemoglobin and myoglobin to the total NIRS signal. Model simulations predict how Q( m ) and PS can affect oxygenated hemoglobin and myoglobin.Although both hemoglobin and myoglobin oxygenation decrease with impaired Q( m ), simulations show that myoglobin provides a greater contribution to the overall NIRS signal. A decrease of PS primarily affects myoglobin oxygenation. Based on model simulations, the contribution of myoglobin oxygenation to the total NIRS signal can be significantly different under pathophysiological conditions, such as diabetes and peripheral arterial disorder.

Abstract
By combining filtered phase and magnitude information to create a novel and intrinsic source of contrast, susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) has shown great promise in clinical angiography and venography. SWI has contributed to new insights into traumatic brain injury, the role of calcification in atherosclerosis, and the possible relationship between blood settling and deep venous thrombosis. A further contribution from SWI to deep venous thrombosis research (and also stroke) involves its application to the noninvasive measurement of oxygen saturation in the brain and in other tissues. Altogether, SWI offers manifold and diverse avenues for further research using angiographic and venographic techniques.

Abstract
Noninvasive, continuous measurements in vivo are commonly used to make inferences about mechanisms controlling internal and external respiration during exercise. In particular, the dynamic response of muscle oxygenation (Sm(O(2))) measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is assumed to be correlated to that of venous oxygen saturation (Sv(O(2))) measured invasively. However, there are situations where the dynamics of Sm(O(2)) and Sv(O(2)) do not follow the same pattern. A quantitative analysis of venous and muscle oxygenation dynamics during exercise is necessary to explain the links between different patterns observed experimentally. For this purpose, a mathematical model of oxygen transport and utilization that accounts for the relative contribution of hemoglobin (Hb) and myoglobin (Mb) to the NIRS signal was developed. This model includes changes in microvascular composition within skeletal muscle during exercise and integrates experimental data in a consistent and mechanistic manner. Three subjects (age 25.6 +/- 0.6 yr) performed square-wave moderate exercise on a cycle ergometer under normoxic and hypoxic conditions while muscle oxygenation (C(oxy)) and deoxygenation (C(deoxy)) were measured by NIRS. Under normoxia, the oxygenated Hb/Mb concentration (C(oxy)) drops rapidly at the onset of exercise and then increases monotonically. Under hypoxia, C(oxy) decreases exponentially to a steady state within approximately 2 min. In contrast, model simulations of venous oxygen concentration show an exponential decrease under both conditions due to the imbalance between oxygen delivery and consumption at the onset of exercise. Also, model simulations that distinguish the dynamic responses of oxy-and deoxygenated Hb (HbO(2), HHb) and Mb (MbO(2), HMb) concentrations (C(oxy) = HbO(2) + MbO(2); C(deoxy) = HHb + HMb) show that Hb and Mb contributions to the NIRS signal are comparable. Analysis of NIRS signal components during exercise with a mechanistic model of oxygen transport and metabolism indicates that changes in oxygenated Hb and Mb are responsible for different patterns of Sm(O(2)) and Sv(O(2)) dynamics observed under normoxia and hypoxia.

Abstract
Blood flow requirements of the respiratory muscles (RM) increase markedly during exercise in chronic heart failure (CHF). We reasoned that if the RM could subtract a fraction of the limited cardiac output (QT) from the peripheral muscles, RM unloading would improve locomotor muscle perfusion. Nine patients with CHF (left ventricle ejection fraction = 26 ± 7%) undertook constant-work rate tests (70-80% peak) receiving proportional assisted ventilation (PAV) or sham ventilation. Relative changes (Δ%) in deoxy-hemoglobyn, oxi-Hb ([O2Hb]), tissue oxygenation index, and total Hb ([HbTOT], an index of local blood volume) in the vastus lateralis were measured by near infrared spectroscopy. In addition, QT was monitored by impedance cardiography and arterial O2 saturation by pulse oximetry (SpO2). There were significant improvements in exercise tolerance (Tlim) with PAV. Blood lactate, leg effort/Tlim and dyspnea/Tlim were lower with PAV compared with sham ventilation ( P < 0.05). There were no significant effects of RM unloading on systemic O2 delivery as QT and SpO2 at submaximal exercise and at Tlim did not differ between PAV and sham ventilation ( P > 0.05). Unloaded breathing, however, was related to enhanced leg muscle oxygenation and local blood volume compared with sham, i.e., higher Δ[O2Hb]% and Δ[HbTOT]%, respectively ( P < 0.05). We conclude that RM unloading had beneficial effects on the oxygenation status and blood volume of the exercising muscles at similar systemic O2 delivery in patients with advanced CHF. These data suggest that blood flow was redistributed from respiratory to locomotor muscles during unloaded breathing.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was initiated in 1977 by Jobsis as a simple, noninvasive method for measuring the presence of oxygen in muscle and other tissues in vivo. This review honoring Jobsis highlights the progress that has been made in developing and adapting NIRS and NIR imaging (NIRI) technologies for evaluating skeletal muscle O(2) dynamics and oxidative energy metabolism. Development of NIRS/NIRI technologies has included novel approaches to quantification of the signal, as well as the addition of multiple source detector pairs for imaging. Adaptation of NIRS technology has focused on the validity and reliability of NIRS measurements. NIRS measurements have been extended to resting, ischemic, localized exercise, and whole body exercise conditions. In addition, NIRS technology has been applied to the study of a number of chronic health conditions, including patients with chronic heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, varying muscle diseases, spinal cord injury, and renal failure. As NIRS technology continues to evolve, the study of skeletal muscle function with NIRS first illuminated by Jobsis continues to be bright.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although women have been performing increasingly more manual labor in the workplace in the past 2 decades, their physiological responses and gender-based differences in muscle microvascularity during occupational activities have not yet been extensively documented. OBJECTIVE This study assessed gender differences and tissue heterogeneity in peripheral circulatory responses from 2 muscle groups during pushing and pulling exercise until volitional exhaustion. METHODS In healthy men and women, near-infrared spectroscopy was used to determine peripheral responses, oxygenation, and blood volume simultaneously from the right biceps brachii and lumbar erector spinae. Pulmonary oxygen uptake was assessed using a metabolic measurement cart. RESULTS Although the 11 men who participated in the study demonstrated greater pulmonary oxygen uptake and power output at volitional exhaustion, their peak peripheral responses for both muscles were similar to those of the 11 women participating. In both sexes, oxygenations trends decreased in both muscles with an increase in workload. However, whereas blood volume increased in the biceps, it decreased in the lumbar muscle in both sexes. At 20% to 60% levels of peak pulmonary oxygen uptake, the percent change in peripheral bicep responses was greater for men than for women (P < 0.05). In contrast, women demonstrated greater change in lumbar muscle oxygenation compared with men at 40% to 60% of peak pulmonary oxygen uptake (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Similar peripheral responses for biceps and lumbar muscles at the point of volitional exhaustion suggest that gender differences in pulmonary oxygen uptake are independent of oxygen extraction or delivery across the muscle groups monitored. However, at submaximal levels of exercise, the peripheral changes in each muscle were gender dependent. Although biceps and lumbar muscles are 2 discrete muscle groups, based on the heterogeneity found in the blood volume trends it is likely that oxygen supply and demand are regulated by muscle location and muscle fiber characteristics. Overall, gender-based assessment of occupational activities should incorporate both pulmonary and peripheral circulatory responses to understand each sex's performance effectiveness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resistance exercise leads to net muscle protein accretion through a synergistic interaction of exercise and feeding. Proteins from different sources may differ in their ability to support muscle protein accretion because of different patterns of postprandial hyperaminoacidemia. OBJECTIVE We examined the effect of consuming isonitrogenous, isoenergetic, and macronutrient-matched soy or milk beverages (18 g protein, 750 kJ) on protein kinetics and net muscle protein balance after resistance exercise in healthy young men. Our hypothesis was that soy ingestion would result in larger but transient hyperaminoacidemia compared with milk and that milk would promote a greater net balance because of lower but prolonged hyperaminoacidemia. DESIGN Arterial-venous amino acid balance and muscle fractional synthesis rates were measured in young men who consumed fluid milk or a soy-protein beverage in a crossover design after a bout of resistance exercise. RESULTS Ingestion of both soy and milk resulted in a positive net protein balance. Analysis of area under the net balance curves indicated an overall greater net balance after milk ingestion (P < 0.05). The fractional synthesis rate in muscle was also greater after milk consumption (0.10 +/- 0.01%/h) than after soy consumption (0.07 +/- 0.01%/h; P = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Milk-based proteins promote muscle protein accretion to a greater extent than do soy-based proteins when consumed after resistance exercise. The consumption of either milk or soy protein with resistance training promotes muscle mass maintenance and gains, but chronic consumption of milk proteins after resistance exercise likely supports a more rapid lean mass accrual.

Abstract
The time course of muscle oxygen desaturation (StO2 kinetics) following exercise onset reflects the dynamic interaction between muscle blood flow and muscle oxygen consumption. In patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD), muscle StO2 kinetics are slowed during walking exercise; potentially reflecting altered muscle oxygen consumption relative to blood flow. This study evaluated whether StO2 kinetics measured using near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) would be slowed in PAD during low work rate calf exercise compared with healthy subjects under conditions in which blood flow did not differ. Eight subjects with PAD and eight controls performed 3 min of calf exercise at 5, 10, 30, and 50% of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC). Calf blood flow responses were measured by plethysmography. Power outputs were similar between groups for all work rates. In PAD, the time constants of StO2 kinetics were significantly slower than controls during 5% MVC (13.5 +/- 1.7 vs. 6.9 +/- 1.2 s, P < 0.05) and 10% MVC work rates (14.5 +/- 2.7 vs. 6.8 +/- 1.1 s, P < 0.05). Blood flow assessed when exercise was interrupted after 30 s did not differ between PAD and control subjects at these work rates. In contrast, the StO2 time constants were not different between groups during 30 and 50% MVC work rates, where blood flow responses in PAD subjects were lower as compared with controls. Thus in PAD, the slowed StO2 kinetic responses under conditions of unimpaired calf blood flow reflect slowed muscle oxygen consumption in PAD skeletal muscle during low work rate plantar flexion exercise as compared with healthy skeletal muscle.

Abstract
PURPOSE We investigated the potential effect of respiratory muscle work on leg muscle oxygenation without artificial intervention in non-endurance-trained young subjects and searched for the range of intensity when this effect could occur. METHODS We simultaneously monitored accessory respiratory and leg muscle oxygenation patterns with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in 15 healthy young men performing maximal incremental exercise on a cycle ergometer. Pulmonary gas exchange was measured. The respiratory compensation point (RCP) was determined. Oxygenation (RMO2) and blood volume (RMBV) of the serratus anterior (accessory respiratory muscle) and of the vastus lateralis (LegO2 and LegBV) were monitored with NIRS. The breakdown point of accessory respiratory muscle oxygenation (BPRMO2) and the accelerated (BP1LegO2) and attenuated fall (BP2LegO2) in leg muscle oxygenation were detected. RESULTS BPRMO2 occurred at approximately 85% .VO2max and was related to RCP (r = 0.88, P < 0.001). BP2LegO2 appeared at approximately 83% .VO2max and was related to RCP (r = 0.57, P < 0.05) and with BPRMO2 (r = 0.64, P = 0.01). From BP2LegO2 to maximal exercise, LegBV was significantly reduced (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION In active subjects exercising at heavy exercise intensities, we observed that the appearance of the accelerated drop in accessory respiratory muscle oxygenation-associated with high ventilatory level-was related with the attenuated fall in leg muscle oxygenation detected with near-infrared spectroscopy. This suggests that the high oxygen requirement of respiratory muscle leads to limited oxygen use by locomotor muscles as demonstrated in endurance-trained subjects. The phenomenon observed was associated with reduced leg blood volume, supporting the occurrence of leg vasoconstriction. These events appeared not only at maximal exercise but onward above the respiratory compensation point.

Abstract
Various near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) variables have been used to estimate muscle lactate threshold (LT), but no study has determined which common NIRS variable best reflects muscle estimated LT. Establishing the inflection point of 2 regression lines for deoxyhaemoglobin (ΔHHbi.p.), oxyhaemoglobin (ΔO2Hbi.p.), and tissue oxygenation index (TOIi.p.), as well as for blood lactate concentration, we then investigated the relationships between NIRS variables and ventilatory threshold (VT), LT, or maximal tissue hemoglobin index (nTHImax) during incremental cycling exercise. ΔHHbi.p. and TOIi.p. could be determined for all 15 subjects, but ΔO2Hbi.p. was determined for only 11 subjects. The mean absolute values for the 2 measurable slopes of the 2 continuous linear regression lines exhibited increased changes in 3 NIRS variables. The workload and VO2 at ΔO2Hbi.p. and nTHImax were greater than those at VT, LT, ΔHHbi.p., and TOIi.p.. For workload and VO2, ΔHHbi.p. was correlated with VT and LT, whereas ΔO2Hbi.p. was correlated with nTHImax, and TOIi.p. with VT and nTHImax. These findings indicate that ΔO2Hb strongly corresponds with local perfusion, and TOI corresponds with both local perfusion and deoxygenation, but that ΔHHb can exactly determine deoxygenation changes and reflect O2 metabolic dynamics. The finding of strongest correlations between ΔHHb and VT or LT indicates that ΔHHb is the best variable for muscle LT estimation.

Abstract
Clinicians now realize the limitations of the physical examination in detecting compensated shock states, the severity of uncompensated states, and in determining the adequacy of resuscitation in order to prevent subsequent post-traumatic multisystem organ failure and death. A renewed interest has developed in interrogating the state of oxygen transport at the end-organ level in the trauma patient. Although used as a research tool and now clinically to monitor cerebral oxygenation during complex cardiovascular and neurosurgery, near infrared absorption spectroscopy (NIRS) is being more aggressively investigated and now marketed clinically as a noninvasive means to assess tissue oxygenation in the trauma patient at the end organ level. This paper will describe the principles of NIRS and the basis for its proposed use in the trauma patient to assess tissue oxygenation. This includes its known limitations, current controversies, and what will be needed in the future to make this technology a part of the initial and ongoing assessment of the trauma patient. The ultimate goal of such techniques is to prevent misassessment of patients and inadequate resuscitation, which are believed to be major initiators in the development of multisystem organ failure and death.

Abstract
It is not clear whether muscle oxygenation (O(2-NIRS)) measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) correlates with femoral venous SO2 (S(fv)o2) during normoxic exercise. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare physiologically calibrated O(2-NIRS) with S(fv)o2 in subjects performing one-legged dynamic knee extension exercise (1L-KEE). Five healthy male subjects (age 25+/-2 year, height 177.8+/-4.8 cm, body weight 67.1 +/- 5.0 kg; mean +/- SD) performed 1L-KEE at 20, 40, and 60% of peak work rate (WR-peak) each for 4 min. S(fv)o2 was measured at rest and during the 3rd minute of each work rate. O(2-NIRS) was continuously monitored in a proximal region of the vastus lateralis (VL-p), a distal region of VL (VL-d), and a proximal region of the rectus femoris (RF-p). S(fv)o2 was 56.0% at rest and decreased to 36.6 at 20% WR-peak, 35.8 at 40% WR-peak, and 31.1 at 60% WR-peak. There was a significant correlation between O(2-NIRS) and S(fv)o2(VL-p: r (2) = 0.62, VL-d: r2 = 0.35, RF-p: r2 = 0.62, with a moderate variation among individuals at each site; residual values = 4.83 - 11.75). These data indicate that NIRS measurement provides a reflection of S(fv)o2 during 20-60% WR-peak of normoxic 1L-KEE.

Abstract
The kinetic characteristics of muscle capillary blood flow (Qcap) during recovery from exercise are controversial (e.g. one versus two phases). Furthermore, it is not clear how the overall Qcap kinetics are temporally associated with muscle oxygen uptake (VO2m) kinetics. To address these issues, we examined the kinetics of Qcap estimated from the rearrangement of the Fick equation (Qcap=VO2m/C(a-v)O2) using the kinetics of pulmonary VO2 (VO2p, primary component) and deoxy-haemoglobin concentration ([HHb]) as indices of VO2m and C(a - v)O2 (arterio-venous oxygen difference) kinetics, respectively. VO2p (l min-1) was measured breath by breath and [HHb] (microm) was measured by near infrared spectroscopy during moderate (M; below lactate threshold, LT) and heavy exercise (H, above LT) in nine subjects. The kinetics of Qcap were biphasic, with an initial fast phase (tauI; M=9.3+/-4.9 s and H=6.0+/-3.8 s) followed by a slower phase 2 (tauP; M=29.9+/-8.6 s and H=47.7+/-26.0 s). For moderate exercise, the overall kinetics of Qcap (mean response time [MRT], 36.1+/-8.6 s) were significantly slower than the kinetics of VO2p (tauP; 27.8+/-5.3 s) and [HHb] (MRT for [HHb]; 16.2+/-6.3 s). However, for heavy exercise, there was no significant difference between MRT-[HHb] (34.7+/-10.4 s) and tauP for VO2p (32.3+/-6.7 s), while MRT for Qcap (48.7+/-21.8 s) was significantly slower than MRT for [HHb] and tauP for VO2p. In conclusion, during recovery from exercise the estimated Qcap kinetics were biphasic, showing an early rapid decrease in blood flow. In addition, the overall kinetics of Qcap were slower than the estimated VO2m kinetics.

Abstract
In the last decade the study of the human brain and muscle energetics underwent a radical change, thanks to the progressive introduction of noninvasive techniques, including near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy (NIRS). This review summarizes the most recent literature about the principles, techniques, advantages, limitations, and applications of NIRS in exercise physiology and neuroscience. The main NIRS instrumentations and measurable parameters will be reported. NIR light (700-1000 m) penetrates superficial layers (skin, subcutaneous fat, skull, etc.) and is either absorbed by chromophores (oxy- and deoxyhemoglobin and myoglobin) or scattered within the tissue. NIRS is a noninvasive and relatively low-cost optical technique that is becoming a widely used instrument for measuring tissue O2 saturation, changes in hemoglobin volume and, indirectly, brain/muscle blood flow and muscle O2 consumption. Tissue O2 saturation represents a dynamic balance between O2 supply and O2 consumption in the small vessels such as the capillary, arteriolar, and venular bed. The possibility of measuring the cortical activation in response to different stimuli, and the changes in the cortical cytochrome oxidase redox state upon O2 delivery changes, will also be mentioned.

Abstract
The near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) signal (deoxyhemoglobin concentration; [HHb]) reflects the dynamic balance between muscle capillary blood flow (Q(cap)) and muscle O(2) uptake (Vo(2)(m)) in the microcirculation. The purposes of the present study were to estimate the time course of Q(cap) from the kinetics of the primary component of pulmonary O(2) uptake (Vo(2)(p)) and [HHb] throughout exercise, and compare the Q(cap) kinetics with the Vo(2)(p) kinetics. Nine subjects performed moderate- (M; below lactate threshold) and heavy-intensity (H, above lactate threshold) constant-work-rate tests. Vo(2)(p) (l/min) was measured breath by breath, and [HHb] (muM) was measured by NIRS during the tests. The time course of Q(cap) was estimated from the rearrangement of the Fick equation [Q(cap) = Vo(2)(m)/(a-v)O(2), where (a-v)O(2) is arteriovenous O(2) difference] using Vo(2)(p) (primary component) and [HHb] as proxies of Vo(2)(m) and (a-v)O(2), respectively. The kinetics of [HHb] [time constant (tau) + time delay [HHb]; M = 17.8 +/- 2.3 s and H = 13.7 +/- 1.4 s] were significantly (P < 0.001) faster than the kinetics of Vo(2) [tau of primary component (tau(P)); M = 25.5 +/- 8.8 s and H = 25.6 +/- 7.2 s] and Q(cap) [mean response time (MRT); M = 25.4 +/- 9.1 s and H = 25.7 +/- 7.7 s]. However, there was no significant difference between MRT of Q(cap) and tau(P)-Vo(2) for both intensities (P = 0.99), and these parameters were significantly correlated (M and H; r = 0.99; P < 0.001). In conclusion, we have proposed a new method to noninvasively approximate Q(cap) kinetics in humans during exercise. The resulting overall Q(cap) kinetics appeared to be tightly coupled to the temporal profile of Vo(2)(m).

Abstract
Skin blood flow affects NIRS. Leg skin blood flow (SkBF) was increased and decreased following local heating and intradermal epinephrine injection. Epinephrine decreased muscle saturation (StO(2)), and heating the leg increased StO(2). The results suggest that changes in SkBF can significantly affect resting StO(2) as measured by near-infrared tissue spectroscopy.

Abstract
Over the past 15 years the use of near infrared spectroscopy in exercise and sports science has increased exponentially. The majority of these studies have used this noninvasive technique to provide information related to tissue metabolism during acute exercise. This has been undertaken to determine its utility as a suitable tool to provide new insights into the heterogeneity and regulation of local tissue metabolism, both in cerebral and skeletal muscle tissue. In the accompanying articles in this symposium, issues related to the principles, techniques, limitations (Ferrari et al., 2004), and reliability and validity of NIRS in both cerebral and skeletal muscle tissue (Bhambhani, 2004), mostly during acute exercise, have been addressed and will not be discussed here. Instead, the present paper will focus specifically on the application of NIRS to exercise sports science, with an emphasis on how this technology has been applied to exercise training and sport, and how it can be used to design training programs for athletes.

Abstract
During the last decade, NIRS has been used extensively to evaluate the changes in muscle oxygenation and blood volume during a variety of exercise modes. The important findings from this research are as follows: (a) There is a strong correlation between the lactate (ventilatory) threshold during incremental cycle exercise and the exaggerated reduction in muscle oxygenation measured by NIRS. (b) The delay in steady-state oxygen uptake during constant work rate exercise at intensities above the lactate/ventilatory threshold is closely related to changes in muscle oxygenation measured by NIRS. (c) The degree of muscle deoxygenation at the same absolute oxygen uptake is significantly lower in older persons compared younger persons; however, these changes are negated when muscle oxygenation is expressed relative to maximal oxygen uptake values. (d) There is no significant difference between the rate of biceps brachii and vastus lateralis deoxygenation during arm cranking and leg cycling exercise, respectively, in males and females. (e) Muscle deoxygenation trends recorded during short duration, high-intensity exercise such as the Wingate test indicate that there is a substantial degree of aerobic metabolism during such exercise. Recent studies that have used NIRS at multiple sites, such as brain and muscle tissue, provide useful information pertaining to the regional changes in oxygen availability in these tissues during dynamic exercise.
