T1: first appointment, T2: second appointment, T3: third appointment, VT1: first ventilatory threshold.
Fig 2.
Green background marks intervals taken from the ramp protocol test on the first appointment (T1); blue background marks intervals taken from the 6-minute exercise at VT1 (first ventilatory threshold) on the second or third appointment (T2/T3). Intervals did not overlap (Start VT1: 45-75 s, Mid VT1: 165-195 s, End VT1: 285-315 s). For all remaining intervals, analyses were based on the middle 30-second window. PWS: preferred walking speed.
