Abstract: Published reports on the use of hyperbaric oxygen in the radiation therapy of head and neck cancer are reviewed. The weight of evidence, from randomised trials, is that it is of clinical value in the control of medium sized head and neck tumours. It is also...
Abstract: The 15 randomised controlled clinical trials of hyperbaric oxygen in radiotherapy yielded three with highly significant benefit and six with useful margins not reaching statistical significance. The increase in tumour control was partly negated by an...
Abstract: Refusal of operative intervention because of high operative risk not infrequently deprives the patients of the only chance to prolong survival. Surgical treatment under hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) creates adequate conditions for such operations as oxygen...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen has been established as an acceptable treatment for the chronic healing wound. Nicotinamide has been shown to be angiogenic and accelerate the physiologic process following wounding. Therefore both nicotinamide and hyperbaric oxygen were...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is an important adjunct in the management of respiratory injuries secondary to smoke inhalation, especially when injury is complicated by inhalation of a toxic chemical such as carbon monoxide or cyanide. For carbon monoxide...
Abstract Cerebral mapping of the spontaneous electroencephalographic activity was performed in 31 subjects suffering from migraine with aura and the results were compared with those of a matched control group. All the patients were examined during the interictal...
Abstract: A 74-yr-old man was scheduled for the biopsy of prostatic tumor under spinal anesthesia. Preoperative serologic test for syphilis was highly positive. Spinal anesthesia was performed in the sitting position, and 2 ml of hyperbaric Neo-percamine S (a mixture...
Abstract: A case is reported in which a comprehensive program of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO), surgical debridement and reconstruction, and continuing medical management resulted in complete and sustained closure of an extensive perineal Crohn's lesion refractory to...
Abstract: Methylguanidine (MG) which is known as a uremic toxin, is synthesized from creatinine (Cre). We have clarified that active oxygen plays an important role on MG synthesis in vitro and in rat hepatocytes. On the other hand, hyperoxia is very injurious in...
