The chapter Heart Rate Response to Exercise reviews the studies performed to estimate a patient’s maximum predicted heart rate. While the commonly used formula (220 – age), developed in 1971, is easy to remember, it underestimates the actual maximum heart rate in older persons. Studies of large sample size have found the maximum heart rate to be relatively independent of sex and physical fitness but to incrementally decline with age. The decrease with age is less than 1 beat per minute per year, however. A more accurate and recommended formula is [(208) – (0.7)(age)] as developed by Tanaka and colleagues.

A generating function technique is used to determine the probability that the deviation between two empirical distributions drawn from the same population lies within a given band a specified number of times. We also treat the asymptotic problem of very large sample size, and obtain explicit expressions when the relative number of failures is very small or very large.

To study the effects of chronic diabetes on heart rate and adrenergic responsiveness we compared unanesthetized diabetic rabbits, 10-13 mo after alloxan monohydrate injection, to age-matched controls. There were no significant differences found between groups for body or heart weight. Both resting and intrinsic heart rate (the latter obtained after atropine sulfate and propranolol HCl) were similar. In addition, serum and left ventricular epinephrine and norepinephrine concentrations as well as left ventricular beta-receptor density and affinity were unchanged in diabetic animals. Heart rate responses to isoproterenol were blunted in diabetics at the three highest doses. Base-line mean blood pressure was modestly lower in diabetic rabbits, and parallel declines in pressure for both groups were observed in response to isoproterenol. The diminished heart rate response to isoproterenol in diabetic rabbits may be due to diminished myocardial sensitivity to catecholamines, possibly combined with altered baroreceptor reflexes. These experiments may provide an explanation for the blunted heart rate response to exercise described in human diabetics.

Mass cytometry (CyTOF) is a critical cell profiling tool in acquiring multiparameter proteome data at the single-cell level. A major challenge in CyTOF analysis is sample-to-sample variance arising from the pipetting process, staining variation, and instrument sensitivity. To reduce such variations, cell barcoding strategies that enable the combination of individual samples prior to antibody staining and data acquisition on CyTOF are often utilized. The most prevalent barcoding strategy is based on a binary scheme that cross-examines the existence or nonexistence of certain mass signals; however, it is limited by low barcoding efficiency and high cost, especially for large sample size. Herein, we present a novel barcoding method for CyTOF application based on mass ratiometry. Different mass tags with specific fixed ratios are used to label CD45 antibody to achieve sample barcoding. The presented method exponentially increases the number of possible barcoded samples with the same amount of mass tags compared with conventional methods. It also reduces the overall time for the labeling process to 40 min and avoids the need for expensive commercial barcoding buffer reagents. Moreover, unlike the conventional barcoding process, this strategy does not pre-permeabilize cells before the barcoding procedure, which offers additional benefits in preserving surface biomarker signals.
