Our search resulted in the identification of four studies that observed the effect of sildenafil, a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, on exercise capacity, exercise haemodynamics, or ventricular performance.(15,16,21,23,25,30) Of the three studies that measured exercise capacity, two showed an increased exercise capacity.
Sample text:```Trials were considered eligible if they satisfied the following inclusion criteria: (1) RCTs comparing RIC versus no conditioning in patients with AMI; (2) patients were treated by primary PCI or thrombolysis; (3) RIC was induced by intermittent limb ischemia–reperfusion; and (4) trials at least reported one of the following outcome measures, including enzymatic myocardial infarction size as assessed by serum peak creatine```

Sample text:```These are in keeping with earlier studies on the steadystate response (2, 5, 8), step-function response, (3, 5, 6, 14) and sinusoidal response ( 14) of the various vascular beds.```

Sample text:```In line with previous results (3, 19, 20, 30), we found that during muscle contraction ERK1/2 phosphorylation was increased and was not affected by CaMKII inhibition.```
Sample intent: result



Sample text:```In line with our results, several previous studies demonstrated the anti-proliferative effect of PPARs agonists in several cell types [11-15].```
Sample intent: result



Sample text:```Previous studies revealed that acylcarnitines were elevated early after APAP treatment and that their elevation was indicative of mitochondrial damage and dysfunction.(15,19) In the present study these observations were confirmed, as palmitoylcarnitine was elevated by toxic doses of APAP and maintained at normal levels (compared with untreated controls) by Wy-14,643 pretreatment.```
Sample intent: result



Sample text:```Our results confi rm previous studies that reached the same conclusion (Boushey et al 1994; Vermeulen et al 2000; Till et al 2005; Marcucci et al 2005).```

Sample text:```Between four and seven days after the VO2peak test, each participant returned to the laboratory to perform a test to verify the power output required to elicit the requisite VO2peak for each training session, i.e. 80% VO2peak.```

Sample text:```Sixteen other subjects took part in studies of lower intensity but more prolonged exercise comprising 45 min at 70% _ VO2peak then to fatigue at 90% _ VO2peak [3, 4].```

Sample text:```We used the stepwise multiple linear regression that accounts for repeated measurements in the same dog (4) first to test whether there was a difference among values for resistances and for elastances between control and emphysema at each mean Paw, considering the entire range of f and VT of forcing.```

Sample text:```Experiments in vivo and in vitro show that plant polyphenols enhance intracellular antioxidant defense and anti-inflammatory capacity, therefore they can be used as photo-protective and chemo-preventative agents [4,10,11].```

Sample text:```They demonstrated by in vitro and ex vivo studies that ATP1A1 mutants showed loss of pump activity and strongly reduced affinity for potassium, causing inappropriate depolarization of the cells (Beuschlein et al. 2013).```
