Prospects of the clinical utilization of melatonin.
Abstract: This review summarizes the present knowledge on melatonin in several areas on physiology and discusses various prospects of its clinical utilization. Ever increasing evidence indicates that melatonin has an immuno-hematopoietic role. In animal studies,...
Limb-threatening necrotizing alternariosis salvaged by adjunctive hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: We describe, to our knowledge, the first case of limb-threatening necrotizing alternariosis whose limbs were successfully salvaged by adjunctive hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2). This 58-y-old patient was immunocompromised with both diabetes and Cushing's...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for cutaneous/soft-tissue zygomycosis complicating diabetes mellitus.
Abstract: A 24-year-old female diabetic patient was hospitalized because of ketoacidosis and a necrotic wound on the hand. Debridement and antibiotic therapy failed to halt the process. After demonstration of Mucor in cultures from the wound, the patient underwent...
Multicenter experience with maxillary prostheses supported by Brรฅnemark implants: a clinical report.
Abstract: This retrospective study involved Japanese patients with prostheses supported by Brรฅnemark implants following maxillectomy. Questionnaires were sent to 75 institutions, and data on 19 patients were collected from 8 institutions. The mean age of patients at...
Effect of hyperbaric oxygen on a rat transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap model.
Abstract: The single-pedicle transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap is frequently associated with partial flap necrosis. Hyperbaric oxygen has previously been shown to increase the survival of skin flaps, although there has been no investigation of...
Prevention and treatment of diabetic foot wounds.
Abstract: The diabetic foot ulcer is one of the most common and devastating complications of diabetes mellitus. These ulcers account for most of the hospital admissions for patients with diabetes, and they represent a common precursor for amputation. When a diabetic...

A modified protocol for early treatment of osteomyelitis and osteoradionecrosis of the mandible.
Abstract: The treatment of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) and early chronic osteomyelitis (COM) of the mandible and maxilla is controversial. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) at two to three times the atmospheric pressure at sea level can result in tissue oxygen tension of almost...
