A series of severe necrotising soft-tissue infections in a regional centre in Sweden.
Abstract: Necrotising soft-tissue infections (NSTIs) are rare conditions with high morbidity and mortality. Patients with NSTIs are often transferred to tertiary hospitals, but the question of whether the potential benefits of highly specialised care outweigh the...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy to treat diabetes impaired wound healing in rats.
Abstract: Wound healing in diabetes is frequently impaired and its treatment remains a challenge. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) receives a wide attendance and is often used as a last resort treatment option, however, its effectiveness for many conditions is...
Delayed hyperbaric oxygen therapy promotes neurogenesis through reactive oxygen species/hypoxia-inducible factor-1α/β-catenin pathway in middle cerebral artery occlusion rats.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has been reported to be neuroprotective and to improve neurofunctional outcomes in acute stroke. However, it is not clear whether delayed HBO enhances endogenous neurogenesis and promotes neurofunctional recovery. The aim of this...
Evidence linking oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and inflammation in the brain of individuals with autism
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.
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.
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...
High-dose rate brachytherapy in localized penile cancer: short-term clinical outcome analysis.
Abstract: To assess clinical outcomes of high-dose rate interstitial brachytherapy (HIB) in localized penile carcinoma. From 03/2006 to 08/2013, patients with biopsy-proven T1-T2 (
Nrf2 activation in astrocytes contributes to spinal cord ischemic tolerance induced by hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning.
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.
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)...
