Exercise testing of pre-school children using the Bruce treadmill protocol: new reference values.

abstract：:We hypothesized that impaired cardiovascular responses to isometric muscle action contribute to the cardiovascular deconditioning that occurs after space flight (SF) and head-down-tilt bed rest (HDT). Six subjects were studied before, during and after 120 days of -6 degrees HDT, and four subjects were studied before, ...
