[Necroticing fasciitis in children].
Abstract: Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a serious condition with infection of the muscular fascia causing rapidly spreading necrosis. NF rarely affects children, and we here report two paediatric cases of NF. The first developed NF after a joint puncture, the other...
The impact of noncontact, nonthermal, low-frequency ultrasound on bacterial counts in experimental and chronic wounds.
Abstract: Preventing wound infection and the development of resistant bacteria are important concerns in wound management. To determine if noncontact, nonthermal, low-frequency ultrasound therapy is effective in controlling wound bacterial colony counts, a series of...
Simultaneous coronary and cerebral air embolism after CT-guided core needle biopsy of the lung.
Abstract: An air embolism in the arterial system is a rare but serious sequela of lung biopsy. We describe the case of a patient who presented with acute cardiac and cerebral air embolism, including simultaneous acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, atrial...

Hyperbaric treatment for children with autism: a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, controlled trial.
Several uncontrolled studies of hyperbaric treatment in children with autism have reported clinical improvements; however, this treatment has not been evaluated to date with a controlled study. We performed a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, controlled trial to assess the efficacy of hyperbaric treatment in children with autism. 62 children with autism recruited from 6 centers, ages 2-7 years (mean 4.92 +/- 1.21), were randomly assigned to 40 hourly treatments of either hyperbaric treatment at 1.3 atmosphere (atm) and 24% oxygen (“treatment group”, n = 33) or slightly pressurized room air at 1.03 atm and 21% oxygen (“control group”, n = 29). Outcome measures included Clinical Global Impression (CGI) scale, Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC), and Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist (ATEC).
[Influence of hyperbaric oxygen treatment on neural plasticity in experimental rats].
Abstract: To explore the influence of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment on neural plasticity and it's mechanism in experimental rats with cerebral ischemia. Ninety-healthy male adult Sprague-Dawley rats (3 to approximately 4 month old) were randomly divided into a...
Treatment of diabetic foot infection with hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: This study was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in the treatment of the infected diabetic foot. Forty-two patients with 44 infected diabetic feet receiving HBOT were divided into two groups. One group of 21 patients...
