Quick Summary

In this meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials, supplementation with caffeine before a maximal graded exercise test (aka stress test) improved some cardiopulmonary (heart and lung) responses to the test.

What was studied?

The effect of supplementation with caffeine before a maximal graded exercise test (exercise stress test) on cardiopulmonary (heart and lung) responses to the test.

The assessed outcomes were peak minute ventilation (volume of air inhaled and exhaled in 1 minute), peak blood lactate, time to exhaustion, peak power output, peak tidal volume (volume of air inhaled and exhaled in 1 breath), peak breathing frequency (number of breaths per minute), peak oxygen uptake, and peak heart rate.
