Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for malignancy: a review.
Abstract: One unique feature of tumors is the presence of hypoxic regions, which occur predominantly at the tumor center. Hypoxia has a major impact on various aspects of tumor cell function and proliferation. Hypoxic tumor cells are relatively insensitive to...
[Avascular mandibular necrosis].
Abstract: Jaw osteonecrosis is, in most cases, caused by external irradiation. It is otherwise a rare occurrence. A 52-year-old patient was referred to this hospital for several tooth extractions. In the procedure follow-up, the external aspect of the mandible was...
Platelet-rich plasma combined with skin substitute for chronic wound healing: a case report.
Abstract: Contemporary management of chronic wounds focuses on improving natural healing and individualization of treatment. Incorporating multiple therapies has become increasingly common. Of interest are autologous growth factors, which are especially important in...

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in the treatment of skin ulcers due to calcific uraemic arteriolopathy: experience from an Australian hyperbaric unit.
Abstract: Calcific uraemic arteriolopathy (CUA), also known as 'calciphylaxis', is a syndrome of ischaemic necrotic ulcers occurring in uraemic patients with end-stage renal failure. It is a debilitating condition with a high morbidity and mortality. Hyperbaric oxygen...

The effects of the extent of spinal block on the BIS score and regional cerebral oxygen saturation in elderly patients: A prospective, randomized, and double-blinded study.
Abstract: Patients may become sedated with spinal anesthesia; however, the effect of the extent of spinal block on the Bispectral index (BIS), a processed electroencephalographic variable, has not been fully investigated. We evaluated the influence of the extent of...
Hyperbaric oxygen treatment and bisphosphonate-induced osteonecrosis of the jaw: a case series.
Abstract: Bisphosphonate (BP)-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is an emerging problem with few therapeutic options. Our pilot study of BP-ONJ investigated a possible role for hyperbaric oxygen (HBO(2)) therapy. A total of 16 patients, ranging in age from 43...
