Association between rat decompression sickness resistance, transthyretin single nucleotide polymorphism, and expression: A pilot study. [PDF]

Physiol Rep
Decompression sickness (DCS) is a systemic syndrome that can occur after an environmental pressure reduction. Previously, we showed that the plasmatic tetrameric form of transthyretin (TTR) nearly disappeared in rats suffering DCS but not in asymptomatic

Brain multi-infarct and decompression sickness [PDF]

Journal of Emergency Practice and Trauma, 2018
Scuba diving is associated with an important risk of devel­oping decompression sickness secondary to formation of gas bubbles inside the body. The latter is formed mainly by nitrogen in the body on the diver’s way to the surface (1,2).
