Hyperbaric oxygen therapy reduces the size of Leishmania amazonensis-induced soft tissue lesions in mice.
Abstract: In this study we determined whether exposing mice to hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) would alter various disease parameters of a susceptible mouse strain infected with Leishmania amazonensis. BALB/c mice exposed to HBO (100% O2 at a pressure of 2.5 ATA, 1h before...
Early enteral feeding compared with parenteral nutrition after oesophageal or oesophagogastric resection and reconstruction.
Abstract: After resective and reconstructive surgery in the gastrointestinal tract, oral feeding is traditionally avoided in order to minimize strain to the anastomoses and to reduce the inherent risks of the postoperatively impaired gastrointestinal motility....
Partial seizure provoked by hyperbaric oxygen therapy: possible mechanisms and implications.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBO2) is used commonly for treatment of bone and soft-tissue radiation necrosis. It may be a potential therapy for radiation necrosis seen after brain irradiation. HBO2 risks include generalized tonic-clonic convulsions. We...
Rectourethral fistula after combination radiotherapy for prostate cancer.
Abstract: To describe 6 cases of rectourethral fistula in patients treated with brachytherapy plus external beam radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer and subsequent rectal biopsies or rectal surgery. A retrospective chart review was undertaken of patients with...
Randomized clinical trial comparing OASIS Wound Matrix to Regranex Gel for diabetic ulcers.
Abstract: To compare healing rates at 12 weeks for full-thickness diabetic foot ulcers treated with OASIS Wound Matrix, an acellular wound care product, versus Regranex Gel. Randomized, prospective, controlled multicenter trial at 9 outpatient wound care clinics. A...
Bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of mandibular and maxillary bone: an emerging oral complication of supportive cancer therapy.
Abstract: The current report presented 17 patients with cancer with bone metastases and 1 patient with osteopenia who received treatment with bisphosphonates and who subsequently developed osteonecrosis of the mandible and/or maxilla. The authors reviewed information...
