Re: The role of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in ischaemic diabetic lower extremity ulcers: a double-blind randomised-controlled trial.
Abstract: Mills, Harding (2004). Re: The role of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in ischaemic diabetic lower extremity ulcers: a double-blind randomised-controlled trial. European journal of vascular and endovascular surgery : the official journal of...
[Therapeutic management of necrotizing neck infections].
Abstract: Necrotizing neck infections are uncommon soft-tissue infections, usually caused by virulent, toxin producing bacteria. Necrotizing fasciitis represents a special form of necrotizing soft tissue infection with a mortality rate of up to 76%...
Haemodynamic effects of hyperbaric hyperoxia in healthy volunteers: an echocardiographic and Doppler study.
Abstract: In the present study, we observed the haemodynamic changes, using echocardiography and Doppler, in ten healthy volunteers during 6 h of compression in a hyperbaric chamber with a protocol designed to reproduce the conditions as near as...
Extra-oral craniofacial endosseous implants and radiotherapy.
Abstract: This paper discusses the use of extra-oral endosseous craniofacial implant (EOECI) therapy in irradiated bone. The survival rate of EOECIs in irradiated bone is reviewed and the controversy over the optimal time prior to place implants is...
Clinical implications of thermal therapy in lifestyle-related diseases
Abstract Systemic thermal therapy, such as taking a warm-water bath and sauna, induces systemic vasodilation. It was found that repeated sauna therapy (60 degrees C for 15 min) improved hemodynamic parameters, clinical symptoms, cardiac function,...
Treatment for postoperative liver failure after major hepatectomy under hepatic total vascular exclusion.
Abstract: Hepatic total vascular exclusion (HTVE) with clamping of the portal triad and the inferior vena cava below and above the liver is a useful technique in the resection of major hepatic lesions situated close to the hepatic veins and...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy of diabetic foot ulcers, transcutaneous oxymetry in clinical decision making.
Abstract: The foot ulcer is one of most common and devastating complications of diabetes and is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. The major causes of these ulcers are ischemia/hypoxia, neuropathy, and infection, and they often...

Invasion of blood vessels as significant prognostic factor in radically resected T1-3N0M0 non-small-cell lung cancer.
Abstract: Radical resection is the therapy of choice in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, even in early stages (T1N0, T2N0) up to 35% of patients will experience recurrence. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the...
