NOS inhibition increases bubble formation and reduces survival in sedentary but not exercised rats.
Abstract: Previously we have shown that chronic as well as a single bout of exercise 20 h prior to a simulated dive protects rats from severe decompression illness (DCI) and death. However, the mechanism behind this protection is still not known. The present study...
