Comparisons of the effects of various exercise regimens on RA volumes and RV area parameters at rest or during HE. (A) Reservoir function; (B) Conduit function; (C) Booster function; (D) RV area in end-diastole; (E) RV area in end-systole; (F) RV fractional area change (FAC). HIIT, high-intensity interval training group; MICT, moderate-intensity continuous training group; CTL, control group; Pre-Rt, resting before the intervention; Pre-HE, during HE before the intervention; Post-Rt, resting after the intervention; Post-HE, during HE after the intervention. Values are the mean ± SEM. * P < 0.05, Rt vs. HE; ** P < 0.05, Pre vs. Post; + P < 0.05, HIIT vs. MICT; # P < 0.05, HIIT or MICT vs CTL.
