Abstract: Acute infections of the diabetic foot (DFI) are a common and complex condition. Patients are generally managed in the ambulatory setting and epidemiological data pertaining to hospitalized patients is lacking. The aim of this study was to analyze the...
Abstract: This study identified predictors of high-grade late hematochezia (HH) following 5-fraction gantry-based stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR). Hematochezia data for 258 patients who received 35 to 40 Gy SABR in 5-fractions as part of sequential...
Abstract: To compare Australian and New Zealand (NZ) rates of referral to hyperbaric units for patients with, or at risk of developing mandibular or maxillary osteoradionecrosis (ORN) due to a history of radiotherapy for oro-pharyngeal cancer. Relevant patient...
Abstract: Water covers over 70% of the earth, has varying depths and temperatures and contains much of the earth's resources. Head-out water immersion (HOWI) or submersion at various depths (diving) in water of thermoneutral (TN) temperature elicits profound...
Abstract: This review was to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of radiation therapy (RT) administered immediately after hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy in patients with high grade gliomas. PubMed, Embase, ISI Web of Knowledge, and Cochrane databases were searched...
Abstract: There is an increasing body of evidence that drainage of lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) improves functional neurological outcome after reperfusion injury to the spinal cord that occasionally follows aortic reconstructive surgery. This beneficial effect is...
Abstract: Cognitive impairment may occur in 42-50% of cardiac arrest survivors. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2) has recently been shown to have neurotherapeutic effects in patients suffering from chronic cognitive impairments (CCI) consequent to stroke and mild...

To determine whether hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy should be used for the treatment of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). A literature search was performed on PubMed, Cochrane Library and DynaMed for studies evaluating the use of HBO2 for ASD treatment. The studies were then reviewed for the highest quality evidence. The evidence is weak for the use of HBO2 in ASD, with only one, likely flawed, randomized control study showing treatment benefit. HBO2 should not be recommended for ASD treatment until more conclusive favorable results and long-term outcomes are demonstrated from well-designed controlled trials.
