Exercise capacity and hemodynamic parameters were measured in ten patients with a previously unpublished variant of hemoglobin (Hb-Linköping) and in ten age- and sex-matched controls. Bicycle ergometer test was almost maximal and the indices of working capacity and cardiac tolerance were similar in patients and controls. The hemoglobin dissociation curve was shifted to the left at rest and after exercise the shift to right was half of the corresponding shift in controls. Lactate accumulation during exercise was similar in patients and controls, also the elimination rate seems identical, but requires further studies. Hydrogen ion production in the patients during exercise was more marked than in the controls. If this is a sign of altered energy metabolism remains to be ascertained in future studies. In acute short-term exercise the patients with abnormally high hemoglobin oxygen affinity seem to have similar tolerance and cardiovascular load. Aberrant metabolism and adaptation to relative hypoxia in spite of erythrocytosis may have long-term effects that require long-term follow-up of these patients.
