FOURNIER’S gangrene: the development of a classical pathology.
Abstract: Necrotizing fasciitis, especially when termed Fournier's gangrene (FG) when it initiates at the perineum, is a rare but rapidly progressive subcutaneous tissue infection characterized by extensive necrosis. Although it has been known for more than a century...
[A solitary sternal lesion found by skeletal scintigraphy following treatment for breast carcinoma].
Abstract: Breast carcinoma frequently metastasises to bone, most often to the thoracic and lumbosacral spine. 3 women, aged 66, 47 and 54 years, who had been previously treated for breast cancer presented with sternal pain. Bone scintigraphy revealed a solitary...
The clinical and economic potential of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of diabetic ulceration and other conditions.
Abstract: Selective use of systemic hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a treatment that deserves further study and analysis. The current situation in the United Kingdom (UK) is discussed in relation to available evidence and practices elsewhere. It would appear that...
alpha-Lipoic acid modulates extracellular matrix and angiogenesis gene expression in non-healing wounds treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: alpha-Lipoic acid (LA) has been found previously to accelerate wound repair in patients affected by chronic wounds who underwent hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy. Because proteinases are important in wound repair, we hypothesized that LA may regulate matrix...
[Hyper- or normobaric oxygen therapy to treat migraine and cluster headache pain. Cochrane review].
Abstract: The aim of this systematic review was to assess the benefits and harms of supplemental oxygen (HBOT/NBOT) for treating and preventing migraine and cluster headaches. All randomized trials comparing the effect of supplemental oxygen on migraine or cluster...
[Medical treatment of macular edema].
Abstract: Macular edema was first described more than a century ago, and its medical treatment has made great progress thanks to recent pharmacological advances. Administration is topical, local (peri- or intraocular), or systemic. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory...
[The use of combined hyperbaric oxygenation and erythropoietin in the treatment of cardiac insufficiency].
Abstract: The aim of this research is to evaluate therapy efficiacy of hyperbaric oxgenation (HBO) with regenerative effects on human tissues and erythropoietin, as a nonspecific growth factor. This study included a group of 9 patients with echocardiographically...
