Effect of maximal exercise on Erythropoietin (EPO) plasmatic concentrations

Aim- To study in professional cyclists EPO variations at rest and immediately after a maximal exercise, taking into account variations of plasma volume (VP). Methods and results- The global analysis of the sample shows two groups of equal number (n=20) with different EPO basic values: one group conf...

Description
Summary:Aim- To study in professional cyclists EPO variations at rest and immediately after a maximal exercise, taking into account variations of plasma volume (VP). Methods and results- The global analysis of the sample shows two groups of equal number (n=20) with different EPO basic values: one group conforming to standard values (NOR), and the other below (BNO). EPO significantly increases (Wilcoxon p
