... apply it to the equation for oxygen uptake, there is going to be little change, little effect on oxygen uptake per se. I mean with just the masked condition itself, you tend to hypoventilate a little bit, but you extract more oxygen, so when you make the calculation for oxygen uptake there is little change.
