Abstract
This study investigated the relationship between hypoxia and the rate of fatigue development in contracting rat hindlimb muscles composed primarily of different fibre types. Hindlimb muscles of 11 rats were exposed, and the soleus (SOL) and gastrocnemius/plantaris (GP) were each isolated with circulation intact and attached to individual force transducers. Rats were then equilibrated with either normoxic (N; arterial partial pressure of O(2) 87.7 +/- 1.5 mmHg) or hypoxic conditions (H; arterial partial pressure of O(2) 30.0 +/- 2.4 mmHg) using an inspired O(2) fraction of 0.21 and 0.10, respectively. The stimulation protocol consisted of 2 min each at 0.125, 0.25, 0.33 and 0.5 tetanic contractions s(-1) sequentially for both conditions. Following the 8 min stimulation period, relative developed muscle tension (% of maximal) was nearly identical for both H and N in SOL (54.2 +/- 3.5 versus 54.3 +/- 4.2%), but was significantly (P < 0.05) lower in H than N (10.8 +/- 0.9 versus 43.0 +/- 8.9%) in GP, indicating a greater amount of fatigue during hypoxia only in the GP. Soleus phosphocreatine (PCr) content fell to similar levels (24.1 +/- 1.6 versus 21.1 +/- 4.9 mmol (kg dry weight (dw))(-1)) during both H and N, but in the white portion of the gastrocnemius (WG), PCr was significantly lower following H than N (14.3 +/- 1.5 versus 34.0 +/- 6.0 mmol (kg dw)(-1)). Similarly, muscle lactate increased in both fibre types at fatigue, but only in WG was the increase significantly greater with H (SOL 7.1 +/- 2.0 versus 5.3 +/- 1.1 mmol (kg dw)(-1); WG 13.7 +/- 4.5 versus 5.3 +/- 2.2 mmol (kg dw)(-1)). Increases in calculated muscle [H(+)], free ADP and free AMP were similar between N and H in SOL but were significantly greater during H compared with N in WG. These data demonstrate that hypoxia induces greater fatigue and disruption of cellular homeostasis in rat hindlimb muscle composed primarily of fibres with low oxidative capacity compared with those of a more oxidative type.

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 it
