Objective: To investigate whether ventilatory factors limit exercise in overweight and obese children during a 6-min step test and to compare ventilatory responses during this test with those of healthy weight children. Design: Cross-sectional, prospective comparative study. Subjects: Twenty-six overweight/obese subjects and 25 healthy weight subjects with no known respiratory illness. Measurements: Various fatness and fat distribution parameters (using air displacement plethysmography and anthropometry), pulmonary function tests, breath-by-breath gas analysis during exercise, perceived exertion. Results: Young people who are overweight or obese are more likely to experience expiratory flow limitation (expFL) during submaximal exercise comp...
