Abstract: Clinical recommendations for the prevention and healing of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are somewhat clear. However, assessment and quantification of the mechanical stress responsible for DFU remain complex. Different pressure variables have been described in...

Radiotherapy for sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma.
Abstract: To evaluate the long-term effectiveness of radiotherapy (RT) in the treatment of sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC). The medical records of 23 patients treated with definitive or postoperative RT between 1992 and 2010 at the University of Florida...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for diabetic ulcers: systematic review and meta-analysis.
Abstract: Approximately 10-15 percent of individuals with diabetes mellitus develop foot ulcers, which precede 85 percent of amputations. Increased oxygen, through the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), has been suggested to encourage ulcer healing thus reducing...
Relation between cervical and thoracic spinal canal stenosis and the development of spinal cord decompression sickness in recreational scuba divers.
Abstract: Retrospective case-control study. The intent of this study was to investigate the relationships between vertebral degenerative changes resulting in spinal canal stenosis, spinal cord lesions and the development of spinal cord decompression sickness (DCS) in...
Human acellular dermal wound matrix: evidence and experience.
Abstract: A chronic wound fails to complete an orderly and timely reparative process and places patients at increased risk for wound complications that negatively impact quality of life and require greater health care expenditure. The role of extracellular matrix...
Spontaneous bladder rupture diagnosis based on urinary appearance of mesothelial cells: a case report.
Abstract: Spontaneous bladder rupture is an extremely rare clinical event that is associated with urinary ascites and apparent acute renal failure. This event is difficult to diagnose clinically, even with advanced techniques such as computed tomography; however, the...
Necrotising fasciitis of odontogenic origin.
Abstract: Necrotising fasciitis (NF) is a rare infection of the fascial planes, which is less common in head and neck, because of the rarity and higher vascularity in the region. We report a case of necrotising fasciitis in a 43-year-old man, arising from a dental...

Repetitive hyperbaric oxygen treatment attenuates complete Freund’s adjuvant-induced pain and reduces glia-mediated neuroinflammation in the spinal cord
Abstract Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy is reported to attenuate pain in both clinical pain conditions and animal pain models, but the underlying mechanism remains to be investigated. Here, we show that 7 daily 60-minute HBO (100% oxygen, 2 atmosphere absolute)...
