Richardson Department of Natural Sciences, Engineering and Mathematics Mid Sweden University, Östersund, Sweden ISSN 1652-893X, Mid Sweden University Doctoral Thesis 57; ISBN 978-91-86073-03-9 ABSTRACT The spleen acts as a storage site for red blood cells, and contraction of the spleen is for many mammals a way of coping with situations where increased blood oxygen storage is beneficial. This ability has also recently been found in humans, where most individuals respond with an increase in circulating erythrocytes in response to environmental or physiological stress, the majority of which can be attributed to the spleen. The initiation of this response, however, is unclear, as is the variability of the response’s development among individuals. This thesis identifies that there is a strong correlation between spleen contraction and circulating hemoglobin (Paper I), that release of these erythrocytes from the spleen is more pronounced in those trained in breath-hold diving than in elite cross-country skiers and untrained persons (Paper II), and that the response develops even in oxygen-poor environments such as at high altitude (Paper III). This is due to the hypoxic stimulus that exists such environments, which acts as an initiator of the response (Paper IV), although even high levels of carbon dioxide are important (Paper V). The size of world championship apnea divers’ spleens is also predictive of their apneic performance, showing that spleen contraction is an important factor in natural diving ability (Paper VI). In conclusion, the contractile response of the spleen, along with the previously described “diving response” helps humans to better endure low-oxygen situations, but despite their common function these responses are not initiated and do not develop in the same manner (Paper VII). Keywords: hypoxia, hypercapnia, hemoglobin, hematocrit, breath-hold diving ii SAMMANDRAG Mjälten innehåller ett extra lager av röda blodkroppar, och mjälteskontraktion är ett sätt för många däggdjur att anpassa sig till situationer där en ökad lagring av syre i blodet är en fördel. Denna förmåga har relativt nyligen upptäckts hos människan där flesta personer svarar på fysiologisk eller omgivningsrelaterad stress med en ökning av mängden erytrocyter i cirkulationen vilket till stor del antas komma från mjälten. Det är dock inte känt hur responsen startas och varför den är olika väl utvecklad hos olika personer. Denna avhandling visar att det finns ett nära samband mellan mjälteskontraktionen och blodets Hb (Paper I), att utsöndring av erytrocyter är större bland tränade apnédykare än bland elitskidåkare och otränade personer (Paper II) och att responsen uppstår även i syrefattig miljö t ex på hög höjd (Paper III). Det beror på att syrebristen i sig är en viktig stimulus för att initiera responsen (Paper IV), men även höjd koldioxidnivån är en viktig faktor (Paper V). En korrelation upptäcktes mellan storleken på apnédykares mjältar och deras resultat på ett världsmästerskap vilket visar att mjälteskontraktionen är viktig för människans naturliga dykförmåga (Paper VI). Slutsatsen är att mjältesresponsen tillsammans med den tidigare beskrivna ”dykresponsen” hjälper oss att bättre klara perioder med syrebrist, och att dessa responser samverkar funktionellt men inte startas på samma sätt (Paper VII).

Fascinating diving with wrecks 0301 - 221 00 | scubatravel.se [email protected] facebook.com/scubatravel.se Explore liveaboard diving in the Red Sea Just a quick look at what is offered in the Red Sea reveals why many divers consider this place to be one of the best and why divers keep returning year after year. The Red Sea is only a few hours away for us northern Europeans. All year round you can experience its shining sun and fascinating tropical diving. In the Red Sea, there are a number of different safaris you can choose between, ”Wrecks & Reefs” and ”South and St. Johns” are two basic safaris that suit you as an Open Water Diver or similar. If you would like to experience something even cooler you can go to the marine parks of Brothers, Elphinestone, Rocky, Daedalus & Zabargad. The diving in the marine parks requires more experience and we recommend at least Open Water and 20 - 30 logged dives. However you to get the most out of these safaris you should be Advanced Open Water diver and feel comfortable with occasional strong currents. A week onboard a liveaboard in the Red Sea means that you live aboard a luxury boat, eat nice food, get spoiled by the crew and guides, make exciting dives and last but not least, you are involved in an unforgettable adventure.

Divers are at risk of gradually increasing hypoxia and hypercapnia due to a long time spent underwater and additionally of increasing hyperoxia while depth diving. Exceeding the limits of hypoxia endurance leads to loss of consciousness or even to death whithout immediate first aid. Often enhanced world records indicate the ability to shape specific to the discipline adaptive mechanisms of cardio-pulmonary system which are individually conditioned. During stay underwater heartbeats decelerating called bradycardia, increase in blood pressure, peripheral blood vessels narrowing and blood centralization in freediver’s organism. These mechanisms enhance blood oxygen management as well as transporting it first of all to essential for survival organs, i.e. brain and heart. These mechanisms are supported by spleen and adrenal glands hormonal reactions. Key words: freediving, breath-hold, training, adaptive mechanisms. Introduction Breath-hold time and water pressure hyperoxia (Muth et al., 2003). While ascending resistance are the two major challenges, which from great depths, a rapid reduction in accompany extreme breath-hold diving, called hydrostatic pressure occurs causes lungs to dilate, freediving.

Že pred iztekajočim se letom, se je za večino potapljačev iztekla tudi letošnja potapljaška sezona. Izjema so seveda tisti, ki jih mraz in hladna voda ne odvrnejo od potapljaških užitkov ali zimski čas vsaj na kratko prekinejo s potapljaškim izletom v tople kraje. V času praznikov, pa naša društva že tradicionalno organizirajo različne potope, katerih namen je predvsem ponovno srečanje s starimi prijatelji, prijetno druženje in vsaj kratek potop v slavnostnem vzdušju. Potapljači tako tudi na simbolni ravni počastimo praznične dni. V zimskem času je organizacija potapljaških prireditev še bolj zahtevna kot sicer, zato vabljeni, da se teh dogodkov udeležimo v čim večjem številu, četudi zgolj kot opazovalci na obali, saj bomo prav s številčnim odzivom organizatorjem najlepše zahvalili za vložen trud in prispevali k uspešno izvedeni akciji. Prav druženju, medsebojnemu sodelovanju in tesnejšemu povezovanju pa je tudi letos na- menjen koledar SPZ »Zveza povezuje«. Na koledarju, ki smo ga posvetili lani preminulemu idejnemu očetu festivala Vodan in našemu odličnemu podvodnemu fotografu Smiljanu Zavrtaniku, so tudi letos označeni
