Abstract: The crucial role of oxygen during the complex process of wound healing has been extensively described. In chronic or nonhealing wounds, much evidence has been reported indicating that a lack of oxygen is a major contributing factor. Although still...
Abstract: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) therapy is still an unsolved challenge. Recent reports have underlined that hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy could play a role in slowing the retinal degenerative process. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of HBO...
Abstract Peripheral nerves are essential connections between the central nervous system and muscles, autonomic structures and sensory organs. Their injury is one of the major causes for severe and longstanding impairment in limb function. Acute peripheral nerve lesion...
Abstract: Preoperative micronutrient supplementation in fast-track surgery programs have shown to reduce complications, shorten recovery, and thereby lower costs. In a prospective randomized study, the metabolic effects of a combination of alpha-ketoglutaric acid...

Abstract: An increased risk of hemorrhagic transformation is a major factor limiting the use of tissue plasminogen activator for stroke. Increased hemorrhagic transformation is also found in animals undergoing transient focal cerebral ischemia with hyperglycemia; this...
Abstract: The effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy or methylprednisolone on the oxidative status were evaluated in experimental spinal cord injury. Clip compression method was used to produce acute spinal cord injury rats. Hyperbaric oxygen was administered...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has been demonstrated to be useful as an adjunctive therapy for Crohn's disease. In the present study, HBO was tested as a treatment for trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid-ethanol (TNBS-E)-induced distal colitis, and its effects were...
Abstract: Oxygen tension in healing tissues is heterogeneous. Increased oxygen mostly stimulates repair mechanisms and enhances tissue healing. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases blood and tissue oxygen content and may help maintain cellular integrity and function....
