Alterations in taste perception as a result of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: The present study evaluates the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on taste sensitivity, hedonic perception of taste, and food preferences. The studied groups included 197 people in total (79 in the study group; 118 in the control group). All patients from...

Livedoid vasculopathy: fast involution after anticoagulant and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: The livedoid vasculopathy is a rare condition characterized by the presence of recurrent painful ulcers in distal extremities of lower limbs. Histologically there is thickness of dermal vessels, occlusion of its light by fibrin thrombi associated with...
Coronary gas embolism during a dive: a case report.
Abstract: A healthy scuba diver presented with a NSTEMI (non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction), pneumothorax and pneumomediastinum after diving. A 34-year-old woman with no significant medical history presented to the emergency department after an episode of...

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in treating post-ischemic pain caused by polycythemia vera complications: a case report.
Abstract: One of the complications of polycythemia vera (PV) can be acute thrombotic occlusion. The severity and prolonged duration of this condition can lead to nerve damage. In this case a 34-year-old male had thrombotic occlusions of the popliteal artery, resulting...
The Human Microcirculation: Regulation of Flow and Beyond
Abstract The microcirculation is responsible for orchestrating adjustments in vascular tone to match local tissue perfusion with oxygen demand. Beyond this metabolic dilation, the microvasculature plays a critical role in modulating vascular tone by endothelial...
