Abstract: We describe four cases of Fournier's gangrene complicating the postchemotherapy aplastic phase (polymorphonuclear cells [PMN] less than 500/microliter) in three patients with acute leukemia and one patient with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Blood and local...

Lack of recovery from oxygen-induced damage to colony formation and DNA synthesis in senescent human diploid fibroblasts.
Abstract: The colony formation and DNA synthesis of cultured human fibroblasts were inhibited under hyperbaric oxygen. When maintained in a growth-arrested state for a few days after oxygen exposure, early passage diploid and SV-40-transformed cells repaired the...
The effect of hyperglycemia on the tumor response to irradiation given alone or in combination with hyperthermia.
Abstract: The effect of hyperglycemia (elevated blood glucose level) on the response of a murine tumor to irradiation given alone or in combination with hyperthermia was studied. Tumors were early generation isotransplants of a spontaneous C3H/Sed mouse fibrosarcoma,...
Experimental study on cytotoxic effects of hyperbaric oxygen and photodynamic therapy on mouse transplanted tumor.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the lung: prognosis and therapy of a rare disease. Report of two cases and review of the literature.
Abstract: On the basis of 2 own patients and 18 cases reported in the literature, clinicopathological features of primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the lung are reviewed. Of the 20 patients (age-range: 14-75 yrs; 13 male, 7 female), 14 underwent resection....
[Functional status of the lymphocytes and adrenal cortex in preoperative radiotherapy of patients with laryngeal cancer exposed to different oxygen conditions].
Abstract: The authors presented the results of study of lymphocytic and adrenal cortical function in preoperative radiotherapy of 38 laryngeal cancer patients in different oxygen regimens: in the air and under the conditions of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO). A method...

Enhancement of tumor radiation response by the combination of a perfluorochemical emulsion and hyperbaric oxygen.
Abstract: The presence of radioresistant hypoxic cells in tumors is believed to be one of the limiting factors in achieving local tumor control by radiotherapy. Treatment with hyperbaric oxygen during irradiation has been shown to improve the radiation response of...
