  1. The control group of divers (non-IPE) had never developed an immersion pulmonary edema (IPE). Divers in the IPE group had previously been hospitalized for an immersion pulmonary edema. In BMI, body mass index, statistical significance was determined using the Mann–Whitney test for unpaired data
