Serum ferritin levels were determined in six U.S. Navy divers during a 29d helium-oxygen saturation dive. Progressive increases in serum ferritin were observed during compression. These increases were maintained during decompression and for 1 week postdive. No relationship was found between serum ferritin increases and the development of decompression sickness (DCS). However, the two divers who subsequently developed DCS had significantly higher serum ferritin levels than those divers who remained free of DCS. These findings indicate that DCS does not result in differential serum ferritin variability and may, therefore, not be involved directly in aseptic bone necrosis (ABN) as postulated earlier by others. However, high baseline levels of serum ferritin may be involved in both DCS and ABN.
在一次为期29天的氦氧饱和潜水期间，对6名美国海军潜水员的血清铁蛋白水平进行了测定。在加压过程中观察到血清铁蛋白逐渐升高。这些升高在减压过程中以及潜水后1周内持续存在。未发现血清铁蛋白升高与减压病（DCS）的发生之间存在关联。然而，随后发生DCS的两名潜水员的血清铁蛋白水平明显高于未患DCS的潜水员。这些发现表明，DCS不会导致血清铁蛋白的差异变化，因此可能不像其他人之前所假设的那样直接参与无菌性骨坏死（ABN）。然而，血清铁蛋白的高基线水平可能与DCS和ABN都有关。
