Journal ArticleDOI

Spinal cord seizures elicited by high pressures of helium

TL;DR: Rats with complete spinal transections were compressed in helium-oxygen to 120 bars, consistent with the hypothesis that the effects of pressure on aggregates of neurons exceed those on isolated components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pressure-selective modulation of NMDA receptor subtypes may reflect 3D structural differences

TL;DR: It is concluded that the NMDAR's diverse responses to HP may lead to selective HP effects on different brain regions, and the need for a re-evaluation of deep-diving safety guidelines is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diving and hyperbaric medicine

TL;DR: You'd be hard pressed to find a better site than the NHS Scottish Diving Medicine website, which contains comprehensive reviews of most aspects of diving medicine from the gas laws to treatment of decompression illness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immediate neurological effects of diving to a depth of 360 metres

TL;DR: The divers with evidence of previous central nervous system injury, or a history of unconsciousness or previous decompression sickness seemed more likely to develop neurological signs after these deep dives, showing that deep diving may induce immediate neurological changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor's neglected subunit - GluN1 matters under normal and hyperbaric conditions.

TL;DR: It is reported that eight GluN1 splice variants, when co‐expressed with GLUN2A, mediate different ionic currents at normal and HP, which may offer a partial explanation for the mechanism governing the complex signs and symptoms of high‐pressure neurological syndrome, and an explanation of the suspected long‐term HP health decrement due to repetitive deep dives by professional divers.
