Summary:1  Section of Vascular Medicine, Divisions of 2  Internal Medicine, 3  Cardiology, 4  Endocrinology and 6  Geriatrics, Department of Medicine, University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, Denver, Colorado 80262; and 5  Division of Pulmonary Medicine, University of Oregon Health Sciences Center, Portland, Oregon 97201 Persons with type II diabetes mellitus (DM), even without cardiovascular complications have a decreased maximal oxygen consumption ( O 2 max ) and submaximal oxygen consumption ( O 2 ) during graded exercise compared with healthy controls. We evaluated the hypothesis that change in the rate of O 2 in response to the onset of constant-load exercise (measured by O 2 -uptake kinetics) was slowed in persons with type II DM. Ten premenopausal women with uncomplicated type II DM, 10 overweight, nondiabetic women, and 10 lean, nondiabetic women had a O 2 max test. On two separate occasions, subjects performed 7-min bouts of constant-load bicycle exercise at workloads below and above the lactate threshold to enable measurements of O 2 kinetics and heart rate kinetics (measuring rate of heart rate rise). O 2 max was reduced in subjects with type II DM compared with both lean and overweight controls ( P
