Figure 2 Oxygen uptake (mean±SD) obtained at each minute of exercise of the two protocols. (Asterisk=p<0.05 bicycle vs treadmill for the same time after the beginning of exercise.) The number of patients performing each stage on bicycle or on treadmill is reported at the upper part of the figure. Statistical analysis was carried out only between patients reaching identical time of exercise with both protocols until the ninth minute. Tr=treadmill; B=bicycle.
