Key result
There was a significant positive relationship between accumulated oxygen deficit from a maximal aerobic test and maximal accumulated oxygen deficit from a supramaximal test (r=0.82, p<0.001).
Why the study?
The study was conducted to validate a method for evaluating anaerobic capacity using an index calculated from an aerobic test instead of a supramaximal test.
Cross-Sectional (n=17)
No
Effect estimate: r=0.82
p-value: p=<0.001
Maximal accumulated oxygen deficit (anaerobic capacity) can be reliably estimated from the accumulated oxygen deficit obtained during a maximal aerobic test, particularly in middle-distance runners, reducing the need for a separate supramaximal test.

Supports aerobic test as proxy for anaerobic capacity estimation; leaves open prospective validation before clinical adoption.
Mitsuka et al. (2019) conducted a cross-sectional in Healthy middle- and long-distance runners (n=17). Accumulated oxygen deficit (AOD) from maximal aerobic test vs. Maximal accumulated oxygen deficit (MAOD) from supramaximal test was evaluated on Correlation between AOD and MAOD (r=0.82, p=<0.001). There was a significant positive relationship between accumulated oxygen deficit from a maximal aerobic test and maximal accumulated oxygen deficit from a supramaximal test (r=0.82, p<0.001).
