The purpose of this study was to investigate the energy expenditure and heart rate responses elicited in elite male midget ice hockey players during small-sided games. Nine players (aged 15.89 ± 0.33 years) participated in the study. Maximal progressive treadmill testing in the laboratory measured the relationship of oxygen consumption ([Formula: see text]) to heart rate before on-ice assessments of heart rate during six different small-sided games: 1v1, 2v2, 2v2 with support player, 3v3 with support player, 3v3 with transitions, and 4v4 with two support players. Heart rate was recorded continuously in each game. 3v3 T small-sided game was the most intense for all four intensity markers. All six small-sided games reached 89% HRmax or more with heart rate peaks in active effort repetition. These findings demonstrate that such small-sided games are considered as high intensity games and are an effective training method for ice hockey players.

We pump-perfused gastrocnemius-plantaris muscle preparations at constant pressure to study the relationship of muscle blood flow (Q) to muscle oxygen consumption (VO2), venous oxygen tension (PVO2), and venous carbon dioxide tension (PVCO2) during steady-state exercise at different rates. Tests were performed under four experimental conditions produced by altering the perfusate blood-gas status with a membrane lung. The consistency of the relationship of Q to other variables was evaluated by statistical analysis of fitted curves. Not one of the above listed variables had the same relationship with Q in all four of the experimental conditions we tested. However, we did find that a consistent relationship existed among Q, PVO2, and PVCO2 in our data. That relationship is well described by the equation (Q-23).[PVO2 - (0.5.PVCO2) - 3] = 105 (when Q is expressed in ml.100 g-1.min-1 and PVO2 and PVCO2 in mmHg). One interpretation of this result is that both PO2 and PCO2 are important variables in the control of blood flow in skeletal muscle the combined influence of which could account for nearly all of the hyperemia response to steady-state muscle exercise.

Veno-arterial differences of pyruvate and lactate across the myocardium in chloralose-anesthetized dogs were very variable; in any one animal they changed continually with time despite constant blood flow and arterial blood concentrations. There was a systematic tendency of v-a lactate to vary with v-a pyruvate, as expressed in the calculated "Δ excess lactate," which remained nearly constant (or, if blood flow changed, bore a constant ratio to (a-v)O2). No change in Δ excess lactate from control values occurred in nonhypoxic experiments despite marked changes in v-a differences, arterial blood composition, and coronary flow. Cardiac Δ excess lactate became positive in most animals breathing 10% O2 in N2; output of excess lactate was also observed in all those in which moderate muscular exercise was induced. This anaerobic metabolism, or change in the relationship between pyruvate and lactate exchanges, was interpreted as an indication that O2 delivery response was not adequate to meet cardiac tissue requirements during such mild stresses when judged by the standards of adequacy of the basal state.

The relationship of local skin temperature and the onset of sweating to the local cutaneous blood flow was studied in the forearm and calf. The purpose of the investigation was to appraise the possible relation of sweat gland activity to the cutaneous vasodilatation which has been attributed to bradykinin or to intracranial temperatures. The onset of sweating was not marked by any apparently related increases in the rate of cutaneous blood flow. On the contrary, the onset of sweating was followed often by a stabilization or even a decrease in the level of cutaneous blood flow. The relations of the latter to the local skin temperature were complex, particularly in the forearm. There appeared to be additional unidentified influences, possibly vasomotor, operating on the skin vessels during transitional phases in the relation of skin temperature to blood flow.

The relationship between left ventricular (LV) myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2) and LV systolic pressure-volume area (PVA) was investigated in anesthetized closed-chest dogs with intact reflexes and subsequently with beta-adrenergic blockade, with or without simultaneous muscarinic blockade. LV chamber volumes were measured using a fast computerized tomography (CT) scanner (dynamic spatial reconstructor, DSR) at 33-ms intervals. Myocardial blood flow was measured from the DSR scans of aortic root angiograms. With intact reflexes, LV MVO2 (Y) related to PVA (X) values as Y = (4.28 +/- 1.81)X + (1.94 +/- 6.0) (n = 24) (mJ.g-1.cycle-1). With beta-adrenergic blockade, LV MVO2 (Y) related to PVA (X) value as Y = (4.24 +/- 1.03)X - (6.43 +/- 6.5), (n = 9) (mJ.g-1.cycle-1). With beta-adrenergic and muscarinic blockade, LV MVO2 (Y) related to PVA (X) value as Y = (2.84 +/- 1.72)X + (3.51 +/- 5.15), (n = 13) (mJ.g-1.cycle-1). The slopes of these regressions are higher than the slopes demonstrated by others in isolated ventricles but very similar to those demonstrated in open-chest dogs.

We determined the spatial distribution of pulmonary blood flow (PBF) with 15-μm fluorescent-labeled microspheres during rest and exercise in five Thoroughbred horses before and 4 h after furosemide administration (0.5 mg/kg iv). The primary finding of this study was that PBF redistribution occurred from rest to exercise, both with and without furosemide. However, there was less blood flow to the dorsal portion of the lung during exercise postfurosemide compared with prefurosemide. Furosemide did alter the resting perfusion distribution by increasing the flow to the ventral regions of the lung; however, that increase in flow was abated with exercise. Other findings included 1) unchanged gas exchange and cardiac output during rest and exercise after vs. before furosemide, 2) a decrease in pulmonary arterial pressure after furosemide, 3) an increase in the slope of the relationship of PBF vs. vertical height up the lung during exercise, both with and without furosemide, and 4) a decrease in blood flow to the dorsal region of the lung at rest after furosemide. Pulmonary perfusion variability within the lung may be a function of the anatomy of the pulmonary vessels that results in a predominantly fixed spatial pattern of flow distribution.
