Doctors do not yet have a definitive test for the bends, instead relying on symptoms to diagnose it. They performed RNA sequencing analysis to measure gene expression changes in white blood cells. For more than a century, researchers have known about ‘the bends’, a serious condition affecting scuba divers. Interesting discovery. “We
