Spiracular fluttering increases oxygen uptake.
Many insects show discontinuous respiration with three phases, open, closed, and fluttering, in which the spiracles open and close rapidly. The relative durations of the three phases and the rate of fluttering during the flutter phase vary for individual

Comparative Contributions of Oxygen Uptake Efficiency and Maximal Oxygen Uptake to Fat Oxidation Metrics in Healthy Male Adults [PDF]
Background Maximal fat oxidation (MFO) and its intensity (FATmax) are important for metabolic health, but current models explain only partially their variability.

Análisis de la relación entre el Yo-Yo Test y el consumo máximo de oxígeno en jóvenes jugadores de fútbol. [Analysis of the relationship between Yo-Yo Test and maximum oxygen uptake in young football players]. [PDF]
This work aimed to examine the validity of the Yo-Yo Endurance Test Level 1 to estimate the maximum oxygen uptake in football players. Participants were 15 male football players, ranging in age from 17 to 19 years old (M = 17,9; DT = 0,67), who developed

Oxygen uptake efficiency slope in healthy normal weight young males: an applicable framework for calculation and interpretation [PDF]
Background The oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) is considered a reliable indicator of cardiorespiratory fitness in young and clinical populations who cannot achieve maximal effort during a graded exercise test.

Maximal oxygen consumption and oxygen uptake efficiency in adolescent males
Background/objective: Measures of oxygen uptake efficiency (OUE) have been used to evaluate cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in adolescents unable to perform maximal exercise. The oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) and oxygen uptake efficiency plateau (

Uptake rate of cationic mitochondrial inhibitor MKT-077 determines cellular oxygen consumption change in carcinoma cells. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE:Since tumor radiation response is oxygen-dependent, radiosensitivity can be enhanced by increasing tumor oxygenation. Theoretically, inhibiting cellular oxygen consumption is the most efficient way to increase oxygen levels.
