The purpose of this study was to examine the validity of the quantitative measurement of muscle oxidative metabolism in exercise by near-infrared continuous-wave spectroscopy (NIRcws). Twelve male subjects performed two bouts of dynamic handgrip exercise, once for the NIRcws measurement and once for the 31P-magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) measurement as a standard measure. The resting muscle metabolic rate (RMRmus) was independently measured by 31P-MRS during 15 min of arterial occlusion at rest. During the first exercise bout, the quantitative value of muscle oxidative metabolic rate at 30 s postexercise was evaluated from the ratio of the rate of oxyhemoglobin/myoglobin decline measured by NIRcws during arterial occlusion 30 s after exercise and the rate at rest. Therefore, the absolute values of muscle oxidative metabolic rate at 30 s after exercise [VO2NIR(30)] was calculated from this ratio multiplied by RMRmus. During the second exercise bout, creatine phosphate (PCr) resynthesis rate was measured by 31P-MRS at 30 s postexercise [Q(30)] under the same conditions but without arterial occlusion postexercise. To determine the validity of NIRcws, VO2NIR(30) was compared with Q(30). There was a significant correlation between VO2NIR(30), which ranged between 0.018 and 0.187 mM ATP/s, and Q(30), which ranged between 0.041 and 0.209 mM ATP/s (r = 0.965, P < 0.001). This result supports the application of NIRcws to quantitatively evaluate muscle oxidative metabolic rate in exercise.
