Kaplan-Meier curves showing survival based on CPET-derived gas exchange parameters—VO2 at AT (dichotomised at AT > 11 ml/kg/min; Log-Rank Mantel-Cox = not significant), Ve/VCO2 at AT (dichotomised at Ve/VCO2 < 35; Log-Rank Mantel-Cox; P = 0.001), VO2 at peak exercise (dichotomised at pVO2 >710 ml/min/m2; Log-Rank Mantel-Cox; P < 0.001) and when Ve/VCO2 and peak VO2 variables are combined. a Univariate of VO2 (ml/kg/min) at AT. b Ve/VCO2 at AT. c Univariate of peak VO2 (ml/min/m2) corrected to body surface area. d Bivariate of Ve/VCO2 and peak VO2 corrected to body surface area
