Benefits of Escin for Decompression Sickness in Bama Pigs by Endothelial-Targeting Protection
Endothelial dysfunction has been considered as pivotal in the pathogenesis of decompression sickness (DCS) and contributes substantively to subsequent inflammatory responses.

Diving capabilities of diving petrels
In striking contrast to the general increase in diving ability with body mass in seabirds, amongst the Procellariiformes, the deepest dives appear to be by the smallest species. Here, we use recently developed, miniaturized time depth recorders to provide the first accurate measurement of dive depth and duration in two small Procellariiformes: Common ...

Inflammatory reaction is the crux in various clinical critical diseases including decompression sickness (DCS). Ulinastatin (UTI), a potent anti-inflammatory agent, has been used clinically, including as a substitution for steroids.

In situ laboratory for plastic degradation in the Red Sea
Degradation and fragmentation of plastics in the environment are still poorly understood. This is partly caused by the lack of long-term studies and methods that determine weathering duration.

The Relationship Between Dive and Pre-Dive Heart Rates in Restrained and Free Dives by Diving Ducks [PDF]
ABSTRACT Dive heart rate was plotted against pre-dive heart rate in forced and voluntary dives and dabbles by restrained and free ducks. The relationship between pre-dive heart rate and the cardiac interval occurring just before or coincident with submersion (first cardiac interval) and the heart rate after 2–5 s submergence (stabilized ...

HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY (HBOT) AS A PRACTICE OF THE SCIENTIFIC HYPERBARIC MEDICINE AND ENGINEERING [PDF]
Assuming that the great number of opportunities that facilitate underwater work revealed new physiological and pathological aspects of immersion and life in hyperbaric conditions we consider that the information contained in this paper is up-to-date in ...

The Circulatory Effects of Increased Hydrostatic Pressure Due to Immersion and Submersion
Increased hydrostatic pressure as experienced during immersion and submersion has effects on the circulation. The main effect is counteracting of gravity by buoyancy, which results in reduced extravasation of fluid.
