Survey of the use of hyperbaric oxygen by maxillofacial oncologists in the UK.
Abstract: Oral and maxillofacial surgeons often use hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). Our aim was to find out the referral pattern of these surgeons for HBO. We contacted oral and maxillofacial units in England, Wales, and Scotland and identified 125...

Brain inflammation and oxidative stress in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer-like brain amyloidosis
Abstract BACKGROUND: An increasing body of evidence implicates both brain inflammation and oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The relevance of their interaction in vivo, however, is unknown. Previously, we have shown...
Craniocervical necrotizing fasciitis of odontogenic origin with mediastinal extension.
Abstract: We review an interesting case of craniocervical necrotizing fasciitis with thoracic extension in an immunocompetent 44-year-old man. The patient underwent aggressive medical and surgical management during a long hospitalization. Multiple...
Retinal degeneration and local oxygen metabolism.
Abstract: Vision loss due to various forms of outer retinal degeneration remains a major problem in clinical ophthalmology. Most retinal degenerations are precipitated by genetic mutations affecting the retinal pigment epithelium and sensory...
The effect of hyperbaric oxygen on human oral cancer cells.
Abstract: Discoveries of the beneficial cellular and biochemical effects have strengthened the rationale for the administration of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2) as an adjunctive therapy for the treatment of osteoradionecrosis (ORN)....
