Aerobic and anaerobic exercise capacities in XXXX and associations with subcutaneous fat distributions.

Obesity is a strong risk factor for the development and progression of @entity387 . Responses to exercise by @entity1 with @entity27 ( @entity27 ) are clinically relevant to reducing body weight and cardiovascular risk factors. This study aimed to clarify the aerobic and anaerobic exercise capacities and their possible relationships with other findings in @entity1 with @entity27 . Forty @entity1 (30 males, 10 females) and 40 controls (30 males, 10 females) were enrolled in this study. Questionnaires (excessive @entity25 , @entity25 , @entity10 , waking unrefreshed, and imbalance), overnight polysomnography, indirect laryngoscopy, and aerobic and anaerobic exercise tests were performed. @entity427 , subscapular, abdomen, and thigh skinfold thicknesses were measured. Subcutaneous abdominal fat (abdomen skinfold) was significantly higher in @entity27 @entity1 than in controls. Maximal anaerobic power and anaerobic capacity were not different significantly between the @entity1 and controls. We found that aerobic capacity was significantly lower in @entity27 @entity1 than in controls. Aerobic capacity was negatively correlated with upper-body subcutaneous fat (triceps and subscapular skinfolds) but not correlated with subcutaneous abdominal fat in @entity27 @entity1 . In multivariate analyses using all @entity1 , the @entity27 index remained a significant independent predictor of aerobic capacity after controlling for a variety of potential confounders including body mass index. Our data confirm that central @entity28 (subcutaneous abdominal fat) is prominent in @entity1 with @entity27 . Our results suggest that lower aerobic exercise capacity in @entity1 with @entity27 might be due to daily physical activity that is restricted by OSA itself. This study also suggests that the degree of subcutaneous abdominal fat cannot be used for predicting aerobic capacity level. We think that upper-body subcutaneous fat might be suitable for determining the physical fitness of @entity1 with @entity27 .
