Hyperbaric hydrogen therapy: a possible treatment for cancer.
Abstract: Hairless albino mice with squamous cell carcinoma were exposed to a mixture of 2.5 percent oxygen and 97.5 percent hydrogen at a total pressure of 8 atmospheres for periods up to 2 weeks in order to see if a free radical decay catalyzer,...
The principles of hyperbaric and anoxic radiotherapy.
Abstract: The effectiveness of hyperbaric and anoxic radiation therapy has been analysed in relaton to local control of malignant disease. Pilot schemes have led to the adoption of two basic treatment regimes which have similar morbidity to...
In vitro determination of tritiated thymidine labeling index (LI). Evaluation of a method utilizing hyperbaric oxygen and observations on the LI of human mammary carcinoma.
Abstract: A simple method for incubation of tissue specimens with tritiated thymidine under 3 atm oxygen tension gave an in vitro labeling index (LI) that corresponded closely with LI's determined by injection of tritiated thymidine in vivo. The LI...
