Abstract: A single session of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2T) is known to act on the parasympathetic system and also increase the production of reactive oxygen species. However, the impact of a treatment series consisting of 20 to 40 sessions on blood pressure (BP)...
Abstract: This retrospective study was performed to assess the effectiveness of active immunostimulation therapy with bacterial immunotherapy (BIT) in treatment for chronic osteomyelitis (COM). We analyze 154 patients affected by COM and treated with BIT from 1995 to...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy is an effective treatment for diabetic chronic wounds. HBO reduces inflammation and accelerates wound healing, by mechanisms that remain unclear. Here we examined a mechanism by which HBO may reduce neutrophil recruitment,...
Abstract: Clostridial myonecrosis (CM) is a rare, life threatening necrotizing infection of a skeletal muscle caused by Clostridium perfringens in the majority of cases. The diagnosis may be difficult because of few diagnostic and cutaneous signs early in its course....
Abstract: Chronic radiation proctopathy is associated with significant morbidity. The effectiveness of endoscopic and medical therapies has not been evaluated. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review of the effectiveness of endoscopic and comparative...
Abstract: This paper discusses the role of molecular oxygen as an aid to wound healing, and the potential value of the three major therapies which allow the delivery of oxygen to the wound site: Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), Topical Oxygen Therapy (TOT) and a new...
Abstract: Wound healing is actually a complex, precisely coordinated interaction between inflammatory cells and mediators, establishing significant overlap between the phases of wound healing. Chronic wounds are defined as wounds that do not follow the well-defined...
Abstract: Decisions on local and systemic wound treatment vary among surgeons and are frequently based on expert opinion. The aim of this meta-review was to compile best available evidence from systematic reviews in order to formulate conclusions to support...
