Long-term results of aggressive management of diabetic foot ulcers suggest significant cost effectiveness.
Abstract: This study was undertaken to examine the hypothesis that the initial high limb salvage rate in patients with diabetes who are treated aggressively with a multidisciplinary approach to management of severe, chronic lower extremity wounds is durable and cost...
Dose-dependent hyperbaric oxygen stimulation of human fibroblast proliferation.
Abstract: Diabetic wounds are characterized by a prolonged wound healing process with insufficient formation of granulation tissue. Systemic hyperbaric oxygen therapy has been observed to improve the healing of these wounds. However, the mechanism(s) responsible for...

Effect of hyperbaric oxygen on sphingomyelinase D activity of brown recluse spider (Loxosceles reclusa) venom as studied by 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has been reported by some to be therapeutic for necrotic lesions induced by the venom of the brown recluse spider, Loxosceles reclusa. Others have reported no efficacy for this treatment. In this study, the effect of high pressure...
Brown recluse spider envenomation: a prospective trial of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: Loxosceles reclusa (brown recluse) spider bites can produce severe skin lesions that may necessitate extensive surgical repair. This study delineated the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on these lesions by performing a prospective controlled...
Modification of in vivo and in vitro TNF-alpha, IL-1, and IL-6 secretion by circulating monocytes during hyperbaric oxygen treatment in patients with perianal Crohn’s disease.
Abstract: Treatment of perianal inflammatory lesions in Crohn's disease (CD) is unsatisfactory and novel treatment modalities are pursued. We have recently reported a good clinical effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment in perianal CD. In the present study, seven...
Clinical controversies in oral and maxillofacial surgery: Part two. Management of dental extractions in irradiated jaws: a protocol without hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Intraoperative search for neuroblastoma by MIBG and radioguided surgery with the gamma detector.
Abstract: Administration of a tumour-seeking compound labeled with a low-energy isotope and intraoperative screening with the gamma probe (radioguided surgery, RGS) could be useful in reoperations for advanced neuroblastoma when the normal anatomy is altered. A pilot...
