Abstract: Noble gases are known for their inertness. They do not react chemically with any element at normal temperature and pressure. Through that, some of them are known to be biologically active by their sedative, hypnotic and analgesic properties. Common...

Low frequency and low intensity pulsed electromagnetic field exerts its anti-inflammatory effect through restoration of plasma membrane calcium ATPase activity
Abstract Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting 1% of the population worldwide. Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) has a number of well-documented physiological effects on cells and tissues including antiinflammatory effect. This study...
Echocardiography in military oxygen divers.
Abstract: Oxygen divers undergo environmental stressors such as immersion, ventilation with scuba, cold exposure, and increased ambient pressure. All of these stressors may be responsible for acute hemodynamic modifications. We hypothesized that repeated hyperbaric...
Pharmacological preconditioning with hyperbaric oxygen: can this therapy attenuate myocardial ischemic reperfusion injury and induce myocardial protection via nitric oxide?
Abstract: Ischemic reperfusion injury (IRI) is an inevitable part cardiac surgery such as coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). While ischemic hypoxia and the ensuing normoxic or hyperoxic reperfusion are critical to the initiation and propagation of IRI, conditioning...
Factors influencing the outcome of lower-extremity diabetic ulcers treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: The objectives of this study were to report outcomes of a large number of patients receiving hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO(2)T) for diabetic lower-extremity ulcers, and to identify likely outcome predictors. Five hyperbaric facilities supplied data on 1,006...
Immediate placement of implants and appliance in an irradiated patient: a case study.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the immediate placement of implants and appliance using hyperbaric oxygenation on a 45-year-old male with a history of squamous cell carcinoma of the floor of the mouth. Five Nobel Biocare implants between the mental...
[Necrotizing fasciitis after arthroscopic synovectomy of an infected prepatellar bursa].
Abstract: Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a life-threatening soft tissue infection in superficial and deep fascias. NF is most often caused by mixed aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. The treatment is early and aggressive surgical debridement, antibiotics and hyperbaric...

Abstract: Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a life-threatening soft tissue infection in superficial and deep fascias. NF is most often caused by mixed aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. The treatment is early and aggressive surgical debridement, antibiotics and hyperbaric...
Can hyperbaric oxygen be used as adjunctive heart failure therapy through the induction of endogenous heat shock proteins?
Abstract: Heart failure (HF) is a chronic condition that is expected to increase in incidence along with increased life expectancy and an aging population. As the incidence of HF increases, the cost to national healthcare budgets is expected to run into the billions....
