Exercise-Induced Diaphragmatic Fatigue is Determined by the Work of Breathing in Healthy Men
MEDICINE AND SCIENCE IN SPORTS AND EXERCISE(2018)
摘要
It has been purported that diaphragmatic fatigue (DF) may occur relatively early during high-intensity exercise. However, studies examining the temporal characteristics of exercise-induced DF are limited by incongruent methodology. PURPOSE: To determine the time-course of exercise-induced DF during high-intensity exercise. METHODS: Eight healthy adult males (25 ± 5 yrs, 182 ± 8 cm, 74.5 ± 5.8 kg) performed a maximal incremental exercise test on a cycle ergometer on Day 1. A constant load time-to-exhaustion (TTE) exercise test was conducted on Day 2 at 60% delta between the calculated gas exchange threshold and peak work rate (85-90% of maximal oxygen consumption). On Days 3 and 4, constant load exercise tests were performed at the same intensity to either 50 or 75% TTE in random order. Assessment of DF was made by measurements of transdiaphragmatic twitch pressure (Pdi,tw) using cervical magnetic stimulation. RESULTS: DF (≥ 20% decrease in Pdi,tw) was present in 2/8 subjects after 50% TTE, 6/8 subjects after 75% TTE and all subjects after 100% TTE. The magnitude of fatigue at 100% TTE (35.0 ± 12.1%) was significantly greater than 75 (23.6 ± 6.4%) and 50% TTE (15.5 ± 5.7%) (both P < 0.01), and 75 to 50% TTE (P < 0.01). Ventilation, the mechanical work of breathing (WOB), and pressure-time products responded similarly between trials (P > 0.05). The accumulated WOB was significantly greater after 100 (3,420 ± 1,093 J) compared to 75 (1,792 ± 611 J) and 50% (877 ± 427 J) TTE (both P < 0.01), and after 75 compared to 50% TTE (P < 0.01). A significant relationship was found between the magnitude of DF and cumulative diaphragmatic force output (r = 0.785; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Our data indicate that exercise-induced DF is proportional to the cumulative WOB; thus, the ability of the diaphragm to generate pressure progressively declines throughout exercise.
