Normobaric hyperoxia therapy for traumatic brain injury and stroke: a review.
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and acute ischaemic stroke are major causes of mortality and morbidity and there is an urgent demand for new neuroprotective strategies following the translational failure of neuroprotective drug trials. Oxygen...

Can intravenous iron therapy meet the unmet needs created by the new restrictions on erythropoietic stimulating agents?
Abstract: In 2008, after reports of an association between erythropoietic stimulating agent (ESA) therapy and the potential for either thrombotic cardiovascular events or more rapid tumor progression in some cancers, the Food and Drug Administration changed the...
Novel and emerging treatments for autism spectrum disorders: a systematic review.
Abstract: Currently, only one medication (risperidone) is FDA-approved for the treatment of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Perhaps for this reason, the use of novel, unconventional, and off-label treatments for ASD is common, with up to 74% of children with ASD...
Anti-apoptotic effect of hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning on a rat model of myocardial infarction.
Abstract: In our previous study, it was indicated that hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning (HOP) could induce a preconditioning against myocardial infarction and promote neovascularization. In this study, attempts were made to investigate whether a modified short-term...
Oxidative stress and gene expression of antioxidant enzymes in the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats under hyperbaric oxygen exposure.
Abstract: Diabetes mellitus (DM) causes not only hyperglycemia but oxidative stress, resulting mainly enhanced production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS). Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatments are applied various diseases including diabetic patients with...
Early detection of myocardial viability by hyperbaric oxygenation in patients with acute myocardial infarction treated with thrombolysis.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBO) could transiently reverse hypoxia during acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In order to evaluate whether early HBO can identify viable segments after AMI, improvement of wall motion score index (WMSI) after HBO was compared...
A systematic review of salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia induced by cancer therapies: management strategies and economic impact.
Abstract: This systematic review aimed to assess the literature for management strategies and economic impact of salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia induced by cancer therapies and to determine the quality of evidence-based management recommendations. The...
