Abstract: Erythropoietin (EPO) may reduce mortality after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Secondary brain injury is exacerbated by multiple trauma, and possibly modifiable by EPO. We hypothesized that EPO decreases mortality more in TBI patients with multiple trauma,...

Abstract: The aim of this research is to evaluate therapy efficiacy of hyperbaric oxgenation (HBO) with regenerative effects on human tissues and erythropoietin, as a nonspecific growth factor. This study included a group of 9 patients with echocardiographically...

Abstract: Recent studies have suggested that the brain preconditioning could induce tolerance to ischemia in humans. It has been believed that newly synthesized proteins are required for the acquisition of delayed tolerance in the brain and spinal cord. However, the...
