The primary aim of this research was to evaluate the oxygen cost (∆V'O2/∆Work-Rate) during incremental exercise in patients with metabolic myopathies as compared with patients with non-metabolic myalgia and healthy subjects. The study groups consisted of eight patients with muscle glycogenoses (one Tarui and seven McArdle diseases), seven patients with a complete and twenty-two patients with a partial myoadenylate deaminase (MAD) deficiency in muscle biopsy, five patients with a respiratory chain deficiency, seventy-three patients with exercise intolerance and normal muscle biopsy (non-metabolic myalgia), and twenty-eight healthy controls. The subjects underwent a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPX Medgraphics) performed on a bicycle ergometer. Pulmonary V'O2 was measured breath-by-breath throughout the incremental test. The ∆V'O2/∆Work-Rate slope for exercise was determined by linear regression analysis. Lower oxygen consumption (peak percent of predicted, mean ± SD; p less then 0.04, one-way ANOVA) was seen in patients with glycogenoses (62.8 ± 10.2%) and respiratory chain defects (70.8 ± 23.3%) compared to patients with non-metabolic myalgia (100.0 ± 15.9%) and control subjects (106.4 ± 23.5%). ∆V'O2/∆Work-Rate slope (mLO2.min-1.W-1) was increased in patients with MAD absent (12.6 ± 1.5), MAD decreased (11.3 ± 1.1), glycogenoses (14.0 ± 2.5), respiratory chain defects (13.1 ± 1.2), and patients with non-metabolic myalgia (11.3 ± 1.3) compared with control subjects (10.2 ± 0.7; p less then 0.001, one-way ANOVA). In conclusion, patients with metabolic myopathies display an in
