    Am J Cardiol 100:563-8. 2007
    ..In conclusion, WL(100) predicts CVD and CHD mortality in men without previous CHD. The association of WL(100) with CVD and CHD mortality is not explained by maximal cardiorespiratory performance...
  2. ncbi Workload at the heart rate of 100 beats/min and mortality in middle-aged men with known or suspected coronary heart disease
    K P Savonen
    Kuopio Research Institute of Exercise Medicine, Kuopio, Finland
    Heart 94:e14. 2008
    ..To investigate whether a workload which an individual is able to perform at the heart rate (HR) of 100 beats/min (WL(100)) independently predicts mortality in middle-aged men with known or suspected coronary heart disease (CHD)...
  3. ncbi Usefulness of chronotropic incompetence in response to exercise as a predictor of myocardial infarction in middle-aged men without cardiovascular disease
    Kai P Savonen
    Kuopio Research Institute of Exercise Medicine, University of Kuopio, Kuopio, Finland
    Am J Cardiol 101:992-8. 2008
    ..1-times higher incidence of AMI than those with a normal HR40-100 and SBP increase (95% CI 1.7 to 5.7). In conclusion, a low HR40-100 predicted AMI in men without previous CVD independent of other exercise test or clinical variables...
  4. ncbi Chronotropic incompetence and mortality in middle-aged men with known or suspected coronary heart disease
    Kai P Savonen
    Kuopio Research Institute of Exercise Medicine, Haapaniementie 16, 70100 Kuopio, Finland
    Eur Heart J 29:1896-902. 2008
    ..The objective is to study whether a heart rate (HR) increase from 40 to 100% of maximal work capacity in the exercise test (HR40-100) independently predicts mortality in men with known or suspected coronary heart disease (CHD)...
  5. ncbi Two-minute heart rate recovery after cycle ergometer exercise and all-cause mortality in middle-aged men
    K P Savonen
    Kuopio Research Institute of Exercise Medicine, Kuopio University HospitalInformation Technology Center, Rovaniemi, Finland
    J Intern Med 270:589-96. 2011
    ..We investigated the prognostic significance of HRR for premature death, particularly in relation to other exercise test variables...

    Eur Heart J 27:582-8. 2006
    ..CONCLUSION: By considering an HR response throughout an exercise test, we found that a blunted HR increase at 40-100% of maximal workload was associated with increased CVD mortality...
