Sorry...you were the OP.
Your first post was an elaborate "science" presentation.
When challenged for evidence, you adopt a defensive pose suggesting that we're being unreasonable asking for published backup. Obvious that you've never published before. What a load of codswallop.
He has been prodding for undefined evidence.... Only in his last post did he make a specific request, for something unrelated to the discussion, which can be ignored.
Finally, you put forward a specific request, based on a straw man argument and an assumption that is not present in this thread... all for something unrelated to the topic of conversation.
I think we can now skip on your request.

I am not here to make nice formal science presentations.... not my job.
I'm here to discover and show cause and effect issues, within the existing science... using existing standard industry measures and tools. If you need to see the justifications for the industry standard tools and measures, then do your own home work... I am not doing it for you.
Ross,
You have expended a lot of energy trying to deflect the findings of the Spisni study away from deep stops. Your central unsubstantiated thesis appears to be that the increase in inflammatory markers in the RD (deep stops) profile was caused by greater oxygen exposure.
If oxygen exposure was the explanation for the elevation of inflammatory markers in the RD group, how do you explain the fact that the air dive group (no oxygen deco and much lower total oxygen exposure than either of the other two groups) also exhibited a significant elevation in the same markers? The only group that didn't exhibit this increase was the compartmental decompression group (GF group).
If you can answer that question, it might be worth continuing the discussion of the other things you have gotten wrong in your analysis.
