Why the study?
Does increasing inspired oxygen at maximal work rate improve exercise performance and cerebral oxygenation during hypobaric hypoxia in men?
Does increasing inspired oxygen at maximal work rate improve exercise performance and cerebral oxygenation during hypobaric hypoxia in men?
Reversal of cerebral hypoxia by increasing inspired oxygen improves maximal exercise performance during hypobaric hypoxia, suggesting cerebral hypoxia limits maximal exercise in these conditions.

May extend hypoxic exercise tolerance via cerebral reoxygenation; hypothesis-generating for performance limits, needing clinical validation.
