Abstract Purpose: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy has been suggested to palliate neuropathic pain, but the mechanisms involved are not well understood. This study explored the involvement of microglial mitophagy via HBO relative to neuropathic pain therapy. Materials...
Peripheral Neuropathy
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Peripheral Neuropathy
Relieving peripheral neuropathic pain by increasing the power-ratio of low-β over high-β activities in the central cortical region with EEG-based neurofeedback: Study protocol for a controlled pilot trial (SMRPain study)
Abstract Background: Chronic neuropathic pain associated with peripheral neuropathies cannot be attributed solely to lesions of peripheral sensory axons and likely involves alteration in the processing of nociceptive information in the central nervous system in most...
Hyperbaric oxygen produces a nitric oxide synthase-regulated anti-allodynic effect in rats with paclitaxel-induced neuropathic pain
Abstract Research has demonstrated that hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) treatment produced relief of both acute and chronic pain in patients and animal models. However, the mechanism of HBO2 antinociceptive effect is still elusive. Based on our earlier findings that...
Excessive mechanism research about HBO2 on peripheral neuropathic pain.

Noninvasive Vascular Assessment of Lower Extremity Wounds in Diabetics: Are We Able to Predict Perfusion Deficits?
Abstract: Vascular assessment of the lower extremity is a critical step in any patient presenting with lower extremity chronic wounds to predict the likelihood of healing and risk of amputation. This concept is vital in patients with diabetes due to their complex...
Hyperbaric oxygen treatment attenuates neuropathic pain by elevating autophagy flux via inhibiting mTOR pathway
Abstract Peripheral neuropathic pain is a complex disease, and treated based on underlying diseases. Emerging evidences suggest that hyperbaric oxygen alleviates neuropathic pain. However, its cellular and molecular mechanism on pain relief is unknown. We hypothesize...
The NO-cGMP-PKG signal transduction pathway is involved in the analgesic effect of early hyperbaric oxygen treatment of neuropathic pain.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has the potential to relieve neuropathic pain. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the NO-cGMP-PKG signaling pathway is involved in the analgesic effects of early hyperbaric oxygen treatment of neuropathic pain in rats....
Randomized controlled trial of neurofeedback on chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy: A pilot study
Abstract Background: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a significant problem for cancer patients, and there are limited treatment options for this often debilitating condition. Neuromodulatory interventions could be a novel modality for patients...
Hyperbaric oxygen attenuates neuropathic pain and reverses inflammatory signaling likely via the Kindlin-1/Wnt-10a signaling pathway in the chronic pain injury model in rats.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy is proven to attenuate neuropathic pain in rodents. The goal of the present study was to determine the potential involvement of the Kindlin-1/Wnt-10a signaling pathway during astrocyte activation and inflammation in a rodent...
