Mean ± SEM of temperature-corrected arterial oxygen pressure.

<p>Ex1, Ex2, Ex3 and End Ex are minutes 1, 2, 3 and the end of exercise. Rec1, Rec2 and End Rec are minutes 1, 2 and the end of recovery. *p<0.05 vs. rest.</p

Simultaneous recording of chest transcutaneous and arterial oxygen pressure.

<p>Chest transcutaneous oxygen pressure (Transcutaneous pO₂) and arterial pressure corrected for temperature changes (Art. temp.-corr. pO₂). The dark square is the walking period.</p

Preprocessing results.

<p>(a) The upper graph shows the original transcutaneous pO₂ signal. The lower graph shows the preprocessed transcutaneous pO₂ signal before clustering (second step) and the periods where the waveform is cut. (b) The upper graph shows the waveform of a cluster after the first step of the clustering. The lower graph shows the preprocessed waveform.</p

Comparison between the empirical models and the statistical models resulting from the clustering analysis.

<p>Empirical models are dotted lines, and statistical models are solid lines. In the figure, the exercise period is in gray. In the table, the highest coefficients are in bold characters.</p
