Recent Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) News
Chronic wound repair and healing in older adults: current status and future research.
Abstract: Older adults are more likely to have chronic wounds than younger people, and the effect of chronic wounds on quality of life is particularly profound in this population. Wound healing slows with age, but the basic biology underlying...
Role of translocator protein density, a marker of neuroinflammation, in the brain during major depressive episodes
Abstract Importance:Â The neuroinflammatory hypothesis of major depressive disorder is supported by several main findings. First, in humans and animals, activation of the immune system causes sickness behaviors that present during a major depressive...
Effects of Normobaric Hyperoxia in Traumatic Brain Injury: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.
Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the important causes of morbidity and mortality throughout the world, especially in young people. In recent years normobaric hyperoxia has become an important and useful step for recovery and...
Effect of neurofeedback training on depression and fatigue in patients with multiple sclerosis
Abstract Depression and fatigue are common symptoms of multiple sclerosis (MS) and are the primary determinants of impaired quality of life in this demyelinating neurological disease. Untreated depression is associated with suicidal ideation,...
Major Ben Richards: A soldier’s story of combat and homecoming
Major Ben Richards explains his injury that caused TBI, how it affected his life, and how HBOT has helped give him his life back.
Effect of nicotinamide mononucleotide on brain mitochondrial respiratory deficits in an Alzheimer’s disease-relevant murine model
Abstract Background:Â Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD), with morphological and functional abnormalities limiting the electron transport chain and ATP production. A contributing...
Optical Imaging of Tumor Response to Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment and Irradiation in an Orthotopic Mouse Model of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is used in the treatment of radiation-induced tissue injury but its effect on (residual) tumor tissue is indistinct and therefore investigated in this study. Orthotopic FaDu tumors were established in...

Peripheral nerve injury induces persistent vascular dysfunction and endoneurial hypoxia, contributing to the genesis of neuropathic pain.
Abstract: Nerve injury is associated with microvascular disturbance; however, the role of the vascular system has not been well characterized in the context of neuropathic pain. Furthermore, ischemia is thought to play a role in a number of...
