Abstract: Further analyses of the material contained in trials of the hyperbaric oxygen chamber in the radiotherapy of carcinoma of the cervix have shown that patients who were severely anaemic prior to radiotherapy, and who required blood transfusion, showed very...
Abstract: Hyperoxia induced cellular damage was used as an experimental model system for examining the ameliorative role of antioxidants. Multiplication of HEp-2 cells in monolayer culture was inhibited after exposure to 100% O2 either hyperbarically at 3 atm absolute...

Several uncontrolled studies have suggested a beneficial effect of hyperbaric oxygen on multiple sclerosis. We studied 40 patients with advanced chronic multiple sclerosis who were randomly divided into two matching groups. The experimental group received pure oxygen, and the placebo group received a mixture of 10 per cent oxygen and 90 per cent nitrogen; both groups were treated at a pressure of 2 atmospheres absolute for 90 minutes once daily, for a total of 20 exposures. Objective improvement occurred in 12 of 17 patients treated with hyperbaric oxygen and in 1 of 20 patients treated with placebo (P less than 0.0001). Improvement was transient in seven of the patients treated with oxygen and long-lasting in five. Those with less severe forms of the disease had a more favorable and lasting response. At one year of follow-up, deterioration was noticed in 2 patients (12 per cent) in the oxygen group, neither of whom had had an initial response, and in 11 patients (55 per cent) in the placebo group, one of whom had had a positive initial response (P less than 0.0008).
Abstract: In rabbits with experimental myocardial infarction, the combined use of hyperbaric oxygenation and ionol greatly potentiated the effect of the antioxidant on contractile function of the left ventricle, the time course of antioxidant lipid activity and...
Abstract: The in vitro thymidine labelling indices (TLI) of 58 human lung tumours were assessed using autoradiography. The labelling technique involved incubation of 1 mm3 tumour fragments with 3H-thymidine (5 muCi ml-1) under conditions of hyperbaric oxygenation at a...

Abstract: The present report is the sixth in a series of combination therapy trials in oral carcinoma in South India conducted since 1960. In the fifth trial a combination of bleomycin (BLM) and irradiation was compared with irradiation alone. The results gained and...
