Abstract: A major limitation to the application of stem-cell therapy to repair ischemic heart damage is the low survival of transplanted cells in the heart, possibly due to poor oxygenation. We hypothesized that hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) can be used as an adjuvant...

Abstract: Radiation-induced brachial plexopathy (RIBP) is an untreatable complication of curative radiotherapy for early breast cancer, characterized by chronic neuropathic pain and limb paralysis. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy is known to promote healing of tissue...

Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygenation is effective in augmenting the delivery of oxygen to tissue, but also causes oxidative stress. As part of our focus on improving peripheral nerve salvage from ischemic fiber degeneration, we evaluated whether hyperbaric oxygenation...
