S125 A Comparison Between Weight Supported And Unsupported Exercise On Energy Expenditure And Cardiorespiratory Response During Exercise In Obese Adults With Treated Obstructive Sleep Apnoea
Bibliographic record
Abstract
<h3>Background</h3> Weight loss and improving cardiorespiratory fitness are key treatment outcomes for obese individuals with Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA). We investigated the total energy expenditure and cardiorespiratory response to weight supported (cycling) and unsupported (walking) at two different intensities. <h3>Methods</h3> Individuals with treated OSA and a BMI >30 kg/m<sup>2</sup> performed an incremental cardiopulmonary exercise test on a cycle ergometer (ICE) and a treadmill (ITM) with expired gas analysis to determine the peak oxygen uptake (VO<sub>2</sub>pk). Participants completed two endurance tests on each modality matched at 80% and 60% of the highest VO<sub>2</sub>pk determined by the incremental tests. The cardiorespiratory responses were measured and total energy expenditure was estimated from the VO<sub>2</sub>. <h3>Results</h3> 16 participants (8 male) completed all six tests: mean [SD] age 57[13]y and median [IQ range] BMI 33.3[30.8 to 35.3]kg·m<sup>-2</sup>. The VO<sub>2</sub>pk on the ITM vs ICE was 2268[574] vs 1775[430]ml·min<sup>-1</sup>, respectively. Participants endured treadmill walking at 80% and 60% VO<sub>2</sub>pk for four and nearly three times as long, respectively, compared to cycling with similar cardiovascular responses. The pattern of energy expenditure during rest, exercise and recovery at matched intensities (Figure 1) was similar between modalities at matched intensities. Total energy expenditure during treadmill walking was greater than cycling at both high (158[101] versus 29[15]kcal) and moderate (178[100] versus 85[59]kcal) intensities. For a thrice weekly exercise regimen of at least moderate intensity, treadmill exercise would typically result in a total of 388 and 277 kcal/week greater energy expenditure than cycle exercise at 80% and 60% VO<sub>2</sub>pk, respectively. <h3>Conclusion</h3> Contrary to current guidelines, walking might be the preferred training modality for achieving the combination of weight loss and increased cardiorespiratory fitness in obese adults with OSA.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
