Abstract: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is not only devastating but also represents a public health burden for society. Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) is implicated in secondary injury following damage to the SC. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment can improve the...

Long-term experience of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for refractory radio- or chemotherapy-induced haemorrhagic cystitis.
Abstract: Radiotherapy and cyclophosphamide-induced haemorrhagic cystitis are rare but severe complications occurring in 3-6% of patients. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) has been demonstrated to be an effective treatment for haematuria not responding to...
MRI findings in cervical spinal cord type II neurological decompression sickness: a case report.
Abstract: Decompression illness affecting the cervical spinal cord is uncommon. We report a case that presented with mixed signs and symptoms of cervical myelopathy and Type II neurological decompression sickness. This presented a diagnostic dilemma that required the...
Relative neuroprotective effects hyperbaric oxygen treatment and TLR4 knockout in a mouse model of temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion.
Abstract: To examine the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy and knockout of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) on the outcome of temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in a mouse model. MCAO was induced in anesthetized male C57Bl/6 mice (WT) and TLR4...
Management of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw: a literature review.
Abstract: Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a serious side effect of bisphosphonate use in patients with osteoporosis, Paget's disease, hypercalcemia of malignancy, metastatic bone disease and multiple myeloma, although recently this complication has also been...
Autophagy in Huntington disease and huntingtin in autophagy
Abstract Autophagy is an important biological process that is essential for the removal of damaged organelles and toxic or aggregated proteins by delivering them to the lysosome for degradation. Consequently, autophagy has become a primary target for the treatment of...
Pre-conditioning with low-level laser (light) therapy: light before the storm.
Abstract: Pre-conditioning by ischemia, hyperthermia, hypothermia, hyperbaric oxygen (and numerous other modalities) is a rapidly growing area of investigation that is used in pathological conditions where tissue damage may be expected. The damage caused by surgery,...

Air embolism: a complication of computed tomography-guided transthoracic needle biopsy.
Abstract: Air embolism is a pathological condition caused by the entry of gas into vascular structures. It is a rare but feared complication due to its serious morbidity. We report two male patients who were diagnosed with air embolism as a complication of computed...
