Cutis marmorata as a manifestation of decompression illness
Emergency Care Journal, 2020 We present imagines of skin lesions due to a decompression illness (known as cutis marmorata). These alterations are usually transient, but they could be a warning sign of a more severe manifestation of decompression illness.

Tetranomial decompression sickness model using serious, mild, marginal, and non-event outcomes
Informatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2020 Decompression sickness (DCS) is a condition resulting from reductions in ambient pressure, causing inert gas bubbles in tissues. This work focuses on hyperbaric exposures, specifically DCS resulting from underwater diving.
