Recent Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) News
Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning inhibits skin flap apoptosis in a rat ischemia-reperfusion model.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) improves skin flap function and inhibits partial necrosis induced by ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Our study aimed to evaluate the mechanism underlying HBO regulation of the antiapoptosis factors associated...
Osteoradionecrosis of mandible bone in patients with oral cancer–associated factors and treatment outcomes.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors associated with osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the mandible bone in a large cohort of patients with oral cancer. We reviewed the medical records of patients with oral cancer and identified...
Augmented renal clearance and therapeutic monitoring of β-lactams.
Abstract: Successful application of antibacterial therapy in the critically ill requires an appreciation of the complex interaction between the host, the causative pathogen and the chosen pharmaceutical. A pathophysiological change in the intensive...
Bioengineered alternative tissues in diabetic wound healing.
Abstract: New advances in medicine and technology continually change how clinicians treat patients with the aim of improving outcomes. As technology continues to improve, the ability to treat patients will improve as well. Great progress has been...
The use of human amnion/chorion membrane in the clinical setting for lower extremity repair: a review.
Abstract: Unsuccessful healing represents a significant medical dilemma for both patients and clinicians and create a financial burden on the health care system. Despite the efforts of physicians, many injuries fail to heal with standard care...
Effect of anti-inflammatory treatment on depression, depressive symptoms, and adverse effects: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials
Abstract Importance: Several studies have reported antidepressant effects of anti-inflammatory treatment; however, the results have been conflicting and detrimental adverse effects may contraindicate the use of anti-inflammatory agents....
Acute pulmonary edema secondary to hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been shown to be effective in the treatment of diabetic ulcers, air embolism, carbon monoxide poisoning and gas gangrene with minimal adverse effects. Very few cases of HBOT causing acute pulmonary...
Sildenafil and Exercise Capacity in the Elderly at Moderate Altitude.
Abstract: Hypobaric hypoxia decreases exercise capacity and causes hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and pulmonary hypertension. The phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor sildenafil is a pulmonary vasodilator that may improve exercise capacity at...
