Modelling the effect of varying metabolic rate and cardiac output on estimated tissue and blood O2 and CO2 levels in an extreme deep‐diver, the goose‐beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris)

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐resolution movement data from Cuvier's beaked, or goose‐beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris, hereafter Ziphius, n = 8) tag deployments (4.1–19.2 days) were used to estimate blood and tissue O2 and CO2 levels. Acceleration and magnetometry data were used to estimate the locomotion cost (LC) from the relationship between activity and the O2 ...

The management of patent foramen ovale in divers: where do we stand?

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Neurological Disorders, 2022
Diving is a fascinating activity, but it does not come without any cost; decompression illness (DCI) is one of the most frequent diseases occurring in divers.

A comparison of normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia effects on cerebrovascular response pre and post maximal exercise

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A lack of consensus remains on whether normobaric hypoxia (NH) and hypobaric hypoxia (HH) may differentially impact physiological factors affecting cerebrovascular regulation, particularly with an additional strenuous exercise component. We sought to compare the acute effects of NH and HH on global cerebral blood flow (gCBF) at an altitude ...

Effects of nocturnal periodic breathing on sympathetic nerve activity and ventilatory control at high altitude: a randomised, crossover study

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the randomised crossover study investigating the effects of nocturnal periodic breathing (nPB) on sympathetic activity and ventilatory acclimatisation in hypobaric hypoxia equivalent to 4000 m altitude. Participants completed two 3‐day sojourns where nPB was inhibited by increasing inspiratory CO2 fraction ...

Lives Transformed—The Experiences of Significant Others Supporting Patients With Severe Burn Injury: A Narrative Inquiry

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Nursing, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 1396-1405, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To explore the experiences of significant others of patients with severe burn injury in the intensive care unit. Specifically, how severe burn injury impacted the significant other and their role within their loved one's life. Design This qualitative study employed a Narrative Inquiry approach.

Muscle tendon elongation with bovine pericardium (Tutopatch®) in patients with Graves’ orbitopathy; a prospective, observational, multicentre study

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 1, Page e18-e27, February 2026.
Abstract Purpose Patients with severe ocular motility restriction and/or large angle strabismus due to Graves' orbitopathy (GO) cannot be adequately addressed with conventional strabismus surgery using large muscle recessions. Muscle tendon elongation surgery, using a spacer of bovine pericardium (Tutopatch®) has emerged as a valuable alternative.

Severe Decompression Sickness Associated with Shock and Acute Respiratory Failure

open access: yesCase Reports in Critical Care, 2020
Decompression sickness (DCS) is a well-recognized complication of diving but rarely results in shock or respiratory failure. We report a case of severe DCS in a diver associated with shock and respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Breath-Hold Divers with Cerebral Decompression Sickness

open access: yesCase Reports in Neurology, 2014
The mechanism of cerebral decompression sickness (DCS) is still unclear. We report 2 cases of breath-hold divers with cerebral DCS in whom magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated distinctive characteristics. One case presented right hemiparesthesia,
