Conversion rate constants. AC The mean kPL, kPB and kPA at rest and during stress. The mean kPL increased statistically significantly from 11 ± 9 *10–3 s−1 to 20 ± 10 *10–3 s−1, p = 0.04. The mean kPB increased statistically significantly from 4 ± 4 *10–3 s−1 to 12 ± 7 *10–3 s−1, p = 0.008. The kPA increased from 5 ± 3 *10–3 s−1 to 16 ± 9 *10–3 s−1, p = 0.06
