The collection reflects widespread skepticism about the publication, exemplified by remarks like 'the journal has retracted an article by non-experts' and 'most posts support the publication's conclusions.' The tone is often dismissive or accusatory, emphasizing retractions and alleged biases in research rather than meaningful analysis, demonstrating low interest and engagement with the actual scientific content.
AgreementStrong disagreement
Most discussions are skeptical or outright dismissive of the article, with many accusing the study of being flawed, biased, or retracted.
InterestLow interest
The overall tone indicates low genuine interest; participants mostly focus on discrediting the study rather than engaging with its findings.
EngagementLow engagement
Engagement appears superficial or confrontational, with commenters questioning authors' credibility and highlighting retractions rather than exploring the research in depth.
ImpactLow impact
The discussions seem to have limited influence on changing perspectives or policy, instead fueling ongoing debate and distrust toward the publication and related authorities.
Abstract in brief
The systematic review analyzed 54 studies involving over 8,600 participants to assess the physiometabolic and clinical effects of medical masks, including surgical and N95 types, during COVID-19.
Results showed that wearing masks led to physiological changes such as decreased oxygen saturation, increased blood CO2 levels, heart rate, blood pressure, skin temperature, and humidity, with more pronounced effects in N95 masks.
Participants experienced increased discomfort, including headache, acne, skin irritation, dyspnoea, and heat, indicating that masks interfere with normal respiration and may cause symptoms related to reduced oxygen intake and CO2 release despite the relatively short duration of mask wear in studies.

When the "masks cause LongCovid" study was retracted, there were two reviewers. You were one.
Why did you not reject it, or be more rigorous in your review of it?

@jasmith_yorku I find this concerning and why I had to stop wearing one a long time ago. I don't see mask wearers looking into the cost benefit. https://t.co/FfOqsfFo2u
@SP_Agent_Tim @pipkinpippa In fact there is evidence to suggest mask wearing is harmful making people sick and might even cause pregnant mothers to have still born babies.

@nilikm Fatigue is one of the dozens of symptoms including “MIES syndrome” often mistaken for “long covid” due to wearing a mask restricting proper ventilation 24/7.. Oh well, going FULL RETARD is the liberal way, to each their own.. #MaskUp
@inkblue01 Yeah and breathing (in some cases) roughly +80% more carbon dioxide along with -70% less oxygen on a daily basis has a whole laundry list of other health side effects that leads to illnesses..
