The role of hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.
Abstract: Diabetic foot ulcers are still extremely difficult to heal. Therefore, therapeutic options to improve healing rates are continuously being explored. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has been used in addition to standard treatment of the diabetic foot for more than 20...
Reduction of apoptosis in ischemic retinas of two mouse models using hyperbaric oxygen treatment.
Abstract: To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) chamber treatment in mouse models of retinal ischemia. Unilateral central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) or optic nerve crush (ONC) was induced in 50 mice each, of which 30 were treated with 100% oxygen...
Th1, Th2, Th17 and regulatory T cell pattern in psoriatic patients: modulation of cytokines and gene targets induced by etanercept treatment and correlation with clinical response
Abstract Background: Psoriasis is sustained by pro-inflammatory CD4+ T helper cells mainly belonging to the Th1, Th17 and Th22 lineage. Objective: To identify whether treatment with the anti-tumour-necrosis-factor antagonist etanercept is able to induce significant...
Controversial issues in hyperbaric oxygen therapy: a European Committee for Hyperbaric Medicine Workshop.
Abstract: Every few years, the European Committee for Hyperbaric Medicine (ECHM) publishes its recommendations concerning the clinical indications for hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). The last recommendations were issued during the 7th European Consensus Conference...
Painful diabetic neuropathy: an update.
Abstract: Diabetes, a silent killer, is a leading cause of neuropathy. Around 50% of diabetic patients develop peripheral neuropathy in 25 years. Painful diabetic neuropathy manifests as burning, excruciating, stabbing or intractable type of pain or presents with...
Calcific uremic arteriolopathy: an underrecognized entity.
Abstract: Calcific uremic arteriolopathy (CUA), or calciphylaxis, is an uncommon and underrecognized disease that often occurs in the setting of chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal disease. It is characterized by small-vessel calcification, although many times...
Prospective assessment of outcomes in 411 patients treated with hyperbaric oxygen for chronic radiation tissue injury.
Abstract: Although hyperbaric oxygen is used to treat chronic radiation tissue injury, clinical evidence supporting its efficacy has been limited to date. The authors report prospectively collected patient outcomes from a single center's large experience using...
