Hyperbaric oxygenation treatment alleviates CCI-induced neuropathic pain and decreases spinal apoptosis.

Sep 28, 2014

Abstract: Increased apoptotic changes in the spinal cord may be responsible for the development of chronic constriction injury (CCI)-induced neuropathic pain. We previously reported the beneficial effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) in the treatment of CCI-induced...

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy attenuates central sensitization induced by a thermal injury in humans.

Sep 28, 2014

Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2 ) treatment has in animal experiments demonstrated antinociceptive effects. It was hypothesized that these effects would attenuate secondary hyperalgesia areas (SHAs), an expression of central sensitization, after a first-degree...

Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning attenuates hemorrhagic transformation through increasing PPARγ in hyperglycemic MCAO rats.

Sep 25, 2014

Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning (HBO-PC) has been demonstrated to attenuate hemorrhagic transformation (HT) after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in hyperglycemic rats. However, the mechanisms remain to be illustrated. Recently, HBO-PC has been...

Predicting patients at risk of early postoperative adverse events.

Sep 19, 2014

Abstract: Adverse events after surgery are common. Identification of markers of at-risk patients may facilitate efficient and effective perioperative resource allocation. This pilot study aimed to identify simple preoperative factors associated with postoperative...

Dental implants in irradiated versus nonirradiated patients: A meta-analysis.

Sep 17, 2014

Abstract: The purpose of the present meta-analysis was to test the null hypothesis of no difference in dental implant failure rates, postoperative infection, and marginal bone loss for patients being rehabilitated by dental implants and being previously irradiated in...

Hyperbaric oxygen treatment and enteral nutrition support with glutamine relieves traumatic brain injury in the rats.

Sep 15, 2014

Abstract: The abnormal metabolic processes following traumatic brain injury (TBI) have been proposed to contribute to secondary injuries after TBI. Therefore, enteral nutrition (EN) support for TBI patients has received more attention. This study aimed to evaluate the...

2015 update of erectile dysfunction management following radical prostatectomy: from basic research to clinical management.

Sep 9, 2014

Abstract: Radical prostatectomy (RP) is the most commonly employed curative intervention for the treatment of prostate cancer. However, due to the proximity of the cavernous nerves (CN) to the prostate, RP results in transient and/often permanent erectile dysfunction...
