Expression of hypoxia-related tissue factors correlates with diminished survival of adjuvantly treated patients with chromosome 1p aberrant oligodendroglial neoplasms and therapeutic implications.
Abstract: Oligodendroglial neoplasms with chromosome 1p deletion are chemosensitive, and stratified adjuvant therapies have been proposed on the basis of 1p status. In this study, we evaluated expression of hypoxia-related factors and its influence on survival in...
Hyperbaric oxygen for traumatic brain injury.
Abstract: Whyte, , , , , , , , (2004). Hyperbaric oxygen for traumatic brain injury. Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 2004 Oct;85(10):1732. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15468040
Immediate postoperative pain management in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery after remifentanil-based anesthesia: sufentanil vs tramadol.
Abstract: The transition from intraoperative analgesia to postoperative analgesia must be planned carefully after remifentanil-based anesthesia, due to the short duration of action of remifentanil. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 2...
Hyperbaric oxygen induces rapid protection against focal cerebral ischemia.
Abstract: The timing and mechanisms of protection by hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) in cerebral ischemia have only been partially elucidated. We monitored the early in vivo effects of HBO after 2 h transient focal ischemia using repetitive MRI. Wistar rats underwent filament...
Adjunctive effect of hyperbaric oxygen treatment after thrombolysis on left ventricular function in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
Abstract: The role of hyperbaric oxygen in patients with acute myocardial infarction is controversial, ranging from not beneficial to having a favorable effect. This randomized study was conducted to further assess the benefit of hyperbaric oxygen treatment after...
The comprehensive therapy of diabetic foot ulcers.
Abstract: Foot wounds are a common complication of diabetes mellitus, and a significant number of them lead to amputation. Fortunately, the majority of diabetic foot wounds are preventable. In this article, we review the different factors leading to ulceration and...

Iron and infection: the heart of the matter.
Abstract: Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a major threat to clinical medicine. However, natural resistance to bacterial infection, which does not depend on antibiotics, is a powerful protective mechanism common to all mankind. The availability of iron is the...
Mandibular reconstruction with microsurgical bone flap and dental implants.
Abstract: Functional reconstruction of the mandible following resection or traumatic injury depends on the bony reconstruction and support dental implants. Microsurgical bone flaps allow the transfer of bone and soft tissue with a rich vascular supply and provide a...
