Impact of Exercise Training Response on Quality of Life and Cardiovascular Risk Factor Profiles in People with Coronary Artery Disease: Insights from the HIIT or MISS UK trial (2024)
Journal Article
Ingle, L., Powell, R., Begg, B., Birkett, S., Nichols, S., Ennis, S., …McGregor, G. (in press). Impact of Exercise Training Response on Quality of Life and Cardiovascular Risk Factor Profiles in People with Coronary Artery Disease: Insights from the HIIT or MISS UK trial. Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apmr.2024.03.002

Objective: To compare the characteristics of “responders” and “non-responders” to 8-weeks of exercise training to determine differences in key cardiovascular disease outcomes in people with coronary artery disease (CAD). Design: Secondary analysis o...

Inter- and Intra-Observer Reliability and Agreement of O2Pulse Inflection during Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing: A Comparison of Subjective and Novel Objective Methodology (2024)
Journal Article
Nickolay, T., McGregor, G., Powell, R., Begg, B., Birkett, S., Nichols, S., …Ingle, L. (2024). Inter- and Intra-Observer Reliability and Agreement of O2Pulse Inflection during Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing: A Comparison of Subjective and Novel Objective Methodology. PLoS ONE, 19(3), Article e0299486. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0299486

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is the ‘gold standard’ method for evaluating functional capacity, with oxygen pulse (O2Pulse) inflections serving as a potential indicator of myocardial ischaemia. However, the reliability and agreement of iden...

High-intensity interval training in cardiac rehabilitation: a multi-centre randomized controlled trial (2023)
Journal Article
McGregor, G., Powell, R., Begg, B., Birkett, S. T., Nichols, S., Ennis, S., …Shave, R. (2023). High-intensity interval training in cardiac rehabilitation: a multi-centre randomized controlled trial. European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 30(9), 745-755. https://doi.org/10.1093/eurjpc/zwad039

BACKGROUND: There is a lack of international consensus regarding the prescription of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) for people with coronary artery disease (CAD) attending cardiac rehabilitation (CR). AIMS: To assess the clinical effectivene... Read More about High-intensity interval training in cardiac rehabilitation: a multi-centre randomized controlled trial.

High-intensity interval training versus moderate-intensity steady-state training in UK cardiac rehabilitation programmes (HIIT or MISS UK): study protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled trial and economic evaluation (2016)
Journal Article
McGregor, G., Nichols, S., Hamborg, T., Bryning, L., Tudor-Edwards, R., Markland, D., …Backx, K. (2016). High-intensity interval training versus moderate-intensity steady-state training in UK cardiac rehabilitation programmes (HIIT or MISS UK): study protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled trial and economic evaluation. BMJ open, 6(11), e012843. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2016-012843

Introduction: Current international guidelines for cardiac rehabilitation (CR) advocate moderate-intensity exercise training (MISS, moderate-intensity steady state). This recommendation predates significant advances in medical therapy for coronary he...
