Recent Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) News
Carotid duplex ultrasound and transcranial Doppler findings in commercial divers and pilots.
Abstract: The risky working environments of divers and pilots, and the possible role of extreme ambient pressure in carotid stenosis, make ischemic stroke an important occupational concern among these professionals. In this study, we aimed to...
An Implantable Depot That Can Generate Oxygen in Situ for Overcoming Hypoxia-Induced Resistance to Anticancer Drugs in Chemotherapy.
Abstract: In the absence of adequate oxygen, cancer cells that are grown in hypoxic solid tumors resist treatment using antitumor drugs (such as doxorubicin, DOX), owing to their attenuated intracellular production of reactive oxygen species (ROS)....
Antioxidant Response of Chronic Wounds to Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy.
Abstract: We analyzed the effects of the clinical hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on the plasma antioxidant response and levels of endothelin-1, Interleukine-6 (IL-6) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in patients with chronic wounds...
Comparison of hyperbaric oxygen versus iloprost treatment in an experimental rat central retinal artery occlusion model.
Abstract: Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is one of the serious ophthalmological emergencies with poor visual prognosis. Iloprost is a stable prostacyclin analogue and has prominent anti-edema, anti-inflammatory, vasodilatory, and...
The Value of Extended Nursing Services on Patients with Bladder Cancer after Endoscopic Bladder Resection.
Abstract: In this study, specific measures of extended nursing services and its values on patients with bladder cancer after endoscopic bladder electrosection were examined. Sixty-six patients diagnosed with bladder cancer in Laiwu People's...
Neurofeedback: A Comprehensive Review on System Design, Methodology and Clinical Applications
Abstract Neurofeedback is a kind of biofeedback, which teaches self-control of brain functions to subjects by measuring brain waves and providing a feedback signal. Neurofeedback usually provides the audio and or video feedback. Positive or...
Protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPRB regulates Src phosphorylation and tumour progression in NSCLC.
Abstract: Protein tyrosine-phosphatases (PTPs) play important roles in various biological processes. Deregulation in PTP function has been implicated in carcinogenesis and tumour progression in many cancer types. However, the role of protein...
Central Retinal Artery Occlusion: A Literature Review and the Rationale for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy.
Abstract: Central retinal artery occlusion is visually devastating and has no proven treatments. The therapeutic interval between symptom onset and potentially sight-saving intervention is narrow. Traditional conservative approaches include digital...
Increased Reactive Oxygen Species Formation and Oxidative Stress in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Abstract Background:Â Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune inflammatory disorder. Highly reactive oxygen free radicals are believed to be involved in the pathogenesis of the disease. In this study, RA patients were sub-grouped depending upon...
