- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Maximal exercise capacity measured using an incremental symptom-limited peak exercise test on an electronically-braked cycle ergometer while breathing through a full face mask measured at baseline and 12-weeks.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <br> 1. Anthropometric measurements: height and body mass were measured and double thickness subcutaneous adipose tissue was determined on the right side of the body using skinfold calipers, at the first visit.<br> 2. Pulmonary function tests: spirometry and single-breath carbon monoxide diffusion capacity were measured at the first visit.<br>
