Abstract: Radiotherapy of head and neck cancer is efficient but may have severe late effects. Although unfrequent, mandibular radionecrosis is the most dreadful. A cascade of events leads from hyposialia to bone destruction through extensive caries and trauma linked...

Neuropsychological effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in cerebral palsy.
Abstract: We conducted a double-blind placebo study to investigate the claim that hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBO2) improves the cognitive status of children with cerebral palsy (CP). Of 111 children diagnosed with CP (aged 4 to 12 years), only 75 were suitable for...
Subdural spinal granuloma resulting from Candida albicans without immunosufficiency: case report.
Abstract: This was a case of spinal subdural granuloma of Candida albicans. A high cerebrospinal fluid protein level without pleocytosis (albuminocytologic dissociation) was observed. This case proved difficult to diagnose and treat. To clarify the important issues in...

Change of oxygen pressure in glioblastoma tissue under various conditions.
Abstract: Measurement of oxygen pressure (pO2) in tumor tissue is important, because pO2 is a major factor for radiosensitivity in malignant glioma treatment. We attempted to elucidate the changes in pO2 level in glioblastoma tissue of patients under various...
Smoke inhalation-induced alveolar lung injury is inhibited by hyperbaric oxygen.
Abstract: Smoke-induced lung injury in rats was assessed in terms of histopathology, gross mortality, neutrophil accumulation and as capillary leak. Administration of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2), 2.8 atm abs for 45 min, inhibited adhesion of circulating neutrophils...

Interventions for replacing missing teeth: hyperbaric oxygen therapy for irradiated patients who require dental implants.
Abstract: Dental implants offer one way to replace missing teeth and associated tissues. Patients who have undergone radiotherapy and those that have also undergone surgery for cancer may benefit particularly from reconstruction with implants. Hyperbaric oxygen...
Dรฉbridement. The key initial first step in wound healing.
Abstract: Before addressing a wound, whether it is chronic or acute, clinicians must thoroughly assess the wound and the patient. An acute wound in a patient with normal blood flow and good medical and nutritional condition should go on to heal if appropriate care is...
