Hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of childhood autism: a randomised controlled trial.
Abstract: Promising results with hyperbaric therapy for children with autism have been reported, but most involved the use of only mild pressure with oxygen supplementation. To date, there has been no randomised, blinded trial of 100% oxygen administered at hyperbaric...
Proposal on limits for chemical exposure in saturation divers’ working atmosphere: the case of benzene.
Abstract: Saturation diving is performed under extreme environmental conditions. The divers are confined to a limited space for several weeks under high environmental pressure and elevated oxygen partial pressure. At present, divers are protected against chemical...
Prognostic aspects, survival rate, and predisposing risk factors in patients with Fournier’s gangrene and necrotizing soft tissue infections: evaluation of clinical outcome of 55 patients.
Abstract: To determine predisposing or prognostic factors and mortality rates of patients with Fournier's gangrene compared to other necrotizing soft tissue infections (NSTI). Data of 55 intensive care patients (1981-2010) with NSTI were evaluated. Data were collected...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy and optic neuritis: case report and literature review.
Abstract: A history of optic neuritis has long been considered a relative contraindication to hyperbaric oxygen therapy. However, the published medical literature regarding the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in patients with previous optic neuritis is very limited,...
Effects of early hyperbaric oxygen therapy on clinical outcome in postoperative patients with intracranial aneurysm.
Abstract: To investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) in postoperative patients with intracranial aneurysm. A total of 120 patients who underwent clipping of intracranial aneurysm of the anterior circulation were randomized into the HBO2 group (n = 60) or...
Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy and MRI reveal no evidence for brain mitochondrial dysfunction in children with autism spectrum disorder
Abstract: Brain mitochondrial dysfunction has been proposed as an etiologic factor in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging ((1)HMRS) and MRI were used to assess for evidence of brain mitochondrial dysfunction in...
Neurofeedback in healthy elderly human subjects with electroencephalographic risk for cognitive disorder
Abstract In normal elderly subjects, the best electroencephalogram (EEG)-based predictor of cognitive impairment is theta EEG activity abnormally high for their age. The goal of this work was to explore the effectiveness of a neurofeedback (NFB) protocol in reducing...
Bioeffects and Therapeutic Applications of Electromagnetic Energy
Book Description From cell phones to treating cancer, EM energy plays a part in many of the innovations that we take for granted everyday. A basic force of nature, like nuclear energy or gravity, this energy can be harnessed and used, but still holds the potential to...
