HAEMATOLOGICAL CHANGES AMONG DIVERS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Medical Journal of Basrah University, 2006
Diving as a job, exposes individuals to a variety of environmental stresses not often encountered in other types of activities. These stresses lead to changes in many organ systems in the body of divers including haemopoietic system.

A gradient-based optimization model for predicting decompression sickness risk

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology
Decompression sickness (DCS) is a low-incidence but potentially severe consequence of hyperbaric exposure. Probabilistic decompression models offer a framework to quantify this risk, yet their calibration is challenged by the scarcity of empirical ...

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...
