Evidence linking oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and inflammation in the brain of individuals with autism

Apr 22, 2014

Abstract Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a heterogeneous group of neurodevelopmental disorders that are defined solely on the basis of behavioral observations. Therefore, ASD has traditionally been framed as a behavioral disorder. However, evidence is...

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy as a prevention modality for radiation damage in the mandibles of mice.

Apr 22, 2014

Abstract: Radiation therapy (RT) as part head and neck cancer treatment often leads to irradiation of surrounding normal tissue, such as mandibular bone. A reduced reparative capacity of the bone can lead to osteoradionecrosis (ORN). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT)...

Osteopontin Mediates Hyperbaric Oxygen Preconditioning-Induced Neuroprotection Against Ischemic Stroke.

Apr 22, 2014

Abstract: Neurosurgical operations may result in surgical injury which would lead to postoperative neurological deficits. Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning (HBO-PC) may be beneficial for such people. However, the exact mechanism underlying HBO-PC is not well known...

Nrf2 activation in astrocytes contributes to spinal cord ischemic tolerance induced by hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning.

Apr 11, 2014

Abstract: In this study, we investigated whether nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) activation in astrocytes contributes to the neuroprotection induced by a single hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning (HBO-PC) against spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion...

Orbital implant placement using a computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) stereolithographic surgical template protocol.

Apr 10, 2014

Abstract: Surgical implant placement in the orbital region for the support of a prosthesis is challenging due to the thin orbital rim and proximity to vital structures. This article reports the use of a computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM)...

Combined free tissue transfer for the management of composite Achilles defects: functional outcomes and patient satisfaction following thigh-based vascularized reconstruction with a neotendon construct.

Apr 8, 2014

Abstract:  Functional outcomes and quality-of-life measures following salvage reconstruction of composite Achilles/posterior leg defects are limited. We present our experience with combined Achilles defect reconstruction utilizing free tissue transfer with...

Reverse Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy following Inadvertent Intrathecal Injection during Percutaneous Epidural Neuroplasty.

Apr 5, 2014

Abstract: Stress induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) is becoming increasingly described as an underdiagnosed complication during common medical procedures. Reverse Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (RTC) is a variant of SIC that involves the basal and mid-ventricular segments and...
