Abstract: The effect of 2 wk of topical hyperbaric oxygen (THO) treatment on the healing of diabetic foot ulcers without associated gangrene was evaluated in a prospective, controlled, and randomized manner in 28 patients. There were 12 patients in the THO group...

Myonecrosis in carbon monoxide poisoning.
Abstract: Myonecrosis is an unusual sequelae to carbon monoxide poisoning with only 16 cases having been reported in the English-language literature. At the University of Illinois Hospital, we encountered a 25-year-old fire academy student who presented to our...
Hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of clostridial gas gangrene.
Abstract: Thirty-two cases with clostridial gas gangrene were treated during the years 1971-87 in the Department of Surgery, Turku University Central Hospital. The presumptive diagnosis was made on the basis of the clinical appearance of the patient and presence of...
Effect of various oxygenation conditions and fluosol-DA on cancer chemotherapeutic agents.
Abstract: Adding Fluosol-DA and carbogen breathing to treatment with various anticancer drugs can result in a significant enhancement of tumor growth delay compared to the drug and air breathing. The optimal conditions for tumor response depend upon the drug,...
Hyperbaric oxygenation for experimental bladder tumor. II. Hyperbaric oxygenation in combination with chemotherapy in N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine-induced bladder tumors.
Abstract: Two series of experiments were conducted to ascertain whether hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) treatment with or without antineoplastic chemotherapy can really suppress tumor development in N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN)-induced bladder tumor in...
Hyperbaric oxygenation for experimental bladder tumor. I. Tissue oxygen tension of the rabbit bladder during hyperbaric oxygenation.
Abstract: Although considerable advances have been made in the application of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) on tumor treatment in the recent past, many difficulties persist due to conflicting results and the understanding of its mechanism. We tested whether HBO...
The effect of fluosol-DA and oxygenation status on the activity of cyclophosphamide in vivo.
Abstract: The addition of Fluosol-DA followed by carbogen breathing increased the antitumor effect of cyclophosphamide as measured by both tumor growth delay and tumor cell survival assays. Under air breathing condition, cyclophosphamide (100 mg/kg) administered i.p....
Effect of hyperbaric oxygenation on normal and chronic streptozotocin diabetic peripheral nerves.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygenation is known to affect energy metabolism and endothelial cell structure and function, but its effects on peripheral nerve have not been reported. We investigated whether it would (i) reverse established streptozotocin-induced diabetic...
[Hyperbaric oxygenation in the combined treatment of patients with polyradiculoneuritis].
Abstract: The results of clinico-electromyographic examinations point to a sufficiently high effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygenation in polyradiculoneuritis and permit its inclusion into the multimodality treatment of the latter. Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO)...
