Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for deep second degree burns: an experimental study in the guinea pig.
Abstract: Most previous animal studies reporting improved epithelialisation and healing of burn wounds under hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) did not include the conventional treatment with topical antibiotics as part of the protocol, and did not compare the effectiveness of...
A comparative study of low-dose hyperbaric spinal lidocaine 0.5% versus 5% for continuous spinal anesthesia.
Abstract: Concerns of cauda equina syndrome have discouraged clinicians to use 5% lidocaine for continuous spinal anesthesia. Earlier reports indicated that single-shot spinal lidocaine 0.5% is effective for minor gynecologic and perianal surgery. In the present...
The effect of hyperbaric oxygen on growth and chemosensitivity of metastatic prostate cancer.
Abstract: Currently, advanced prostate cancer (CaP) is not curable. In this report hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is examined as an adjuvant to chemotherapy and as a stand-alone treatment. CaP cell monolayers grown under normoxic conditions were exposed to cisplatin, taxol...

Abstract: To study human myocardial ultrastructural changes after carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning inducing reversible cardiac failure. clinical, functional and morphologic findings. Public university-affiliated hospital and electron microscopy laboratory. Tritapepe,...
Dental extractions after radiation therapy in the head and neck area and hard tissue replacement (HTR) therapy: a preliminary study.
Abstract: Dental extractions in patients who had radiation therapy for cancer in the head and neck region carry with them the risks of delayed healing, prolonged alveolar bone exposure, infection, and osteoradionecrosis. Among the precautions to minimize these risks...
Change in major amputation rate in a center dedicated to diabetic foot care during the 1980s: prognostic determinants for major amputation.
Abstract: From 1990 to 1993, 115 diabetic patients were consecutively hospitalized in our diabetologic unit for foot ulcer and 27 (23.5%) major amputations were carried out. The major amputation rate of this series of cases was compared with that occurring in diabetic...
