Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor Has a Protective Effect on Decompression Sickness in Rats

Introduction: Commercial divers, high altitude pilots, and astronauts are exposed to some inherent risk of decompression sickness (DCS), though the mechanisms that trigger are still unclear. It has been previously showed that diving may induce increased levels of serum angiotensin converting enzyme....
