Metabolomic approach with LC-MS reveals significant effect of pressure on diver's plasma.

Professional and recreational diving are growing activities in modern life. Diving has been associated with increased prevalence of stroke, hypertension, asthma, diabetes, or bone necrosis. We evaluated the effect of increased pressure equivalent to diving at 30 and 60 m for 30 min in two groups of divers using an untargeted approach with LC-MS fingerprinting of plasma.
