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....

Hyperoxia retards growth and induces apoptosis, changes in vascular density and gene expression in transplanted gliomas in nude rats.
Abstract: This study describes the biological effects of hyperoxic treatment on BT4C rat glioma xenografts in vivo with special reference to tumor growth, angiogenesis, apoptosis, general morphology and gene expression parameters. One group of tumor bearing animals...
[A case of ophthalmic artery obstruction following autologous fat injection in the glabellar area].
Abstract: We report a case of blindness due to occlusion of the ophthalmic artery following injection of autologous fat into the glabellar region for cosmetic surgery. A 30-year-old woman underwent aspiration of autologous fat from her gluteal region and injection of...
Effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on fibrovascular ingrowth in porous polyethylene blocks implanted under burn scar tissue: an experimental study.
Abstract: Effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on biointegration of porous polyethylene (PP) implanted beneath dorsal burn scar and normal skin were experimentally examined in Sprague-Dawley rats. In Group One (n=20), daily HBO treatments were given after the...
Self-expandable covered metal tracheal type stent for sealing cervical anastomotic leak after esophagectomy and gastric pull-up: pitfalls and possibilities.
Abstract: From January 2003 to June 2006, 6 patients with leakage of the cervical esophagogastrostomy after esophagectomy and gastric pull-up underwent endoscopic stenting using the self-expandable covered tracheal type device. Anastomotic healing was satisfactory....
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves spatial learning and memory in a rat model of chronic traumatic brain injury.
Abstract: In the present experiment we use a rat model of traumatic brain injury to evaluate the ability of low-pressure hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to improve behavioral and neurobiological outcomes. The study employed an adaptation of the focal cortical...

[Bisphosphonates and osteonecrosis of the jaws].
Abstract: The osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ) has been reported occasionally in cancer patients treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. However, bisphosphonate (BP)-associated ONJ in patients with cancer such as multiple myeloma, breast cancer and prostate cancer...
Migraine prevalence, disease burden, and the need for preventive therapy
Abstract Objectives: 1) To reassess the prevalence of migraine in the United States; 2) to assess patterns of migraine treatment in the population; and 3) to contrast current patterns of preventive treatment use with recommendations for use from an expert headache...
