Recent Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) News
Hyperbaric oxygen treatment enhances regeneration of the rat sciatic nerve.
Abstract: The effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment on regeneration of the rat sciatic nerve was studied. The sciatic nerve was crushed with a pair of pliers and the animals were either left untreated or subjected to a series of 45-min...
Use of the fixed mandibular implant in oral cancer patients: a retrospective study.
Abstract: A retrospective review of the fixed mandibular implant (FMI) in oral cancer patients is presented. Success of the device and associated complications are discussed. Eighteen oral cancer patients with an FMI were identified. All were...
[Role of hyperbaric oxygen in the treatment of necrotizing infections of the soft tissues].
Abstract: The Authors report their experience in the treatment of soft tissue necrotizing infections. The correct "timing" of the association of surgery, antibiotics and hyperbaric oxygen therapy is stressed. The good clinical results...
Biobehavioral correlates in migraine: the role of hypersensitivity and information-processing dysfunction
Abstract In this paper we address the role of specific abnormal behavioral patterns (such as perfectionism or hypersensitivity) which have been described as psychological characteristics in migraine patients. We propose that behavioral...
Wound healing. New modalities for a new millennium.
Abstract: Common to all studies of wound healing modalities is the need to convert the chronic wound into an acute wound and to maintain the wound in an acute state while subsequently using adjunctive therapy. Hence, precise control and...

Effects of high atmospheric pressure and oxygen on middle cerebral blood flow velocity in humans measured by transcranial Doppler.
Abstract: There are several reports that have studied the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on cerebral blood flow (CBF). However, most of the reports have been of animal experiments, and human studies are few so far. The aim of this study is to...
Hyperbaric oxygen and basic fibroblast growth factor promote growth of irradiated bone.
Abstract: The goal of the current experiment is to test for protective effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on bone growth. Control C3H mice received hind leg irradiation at 0, 10, 20, or 30 Gy. HBO-treated...
