Abstract Following peripheral nerve compression, peripheral nerve microcirculation plays important roles in regulating the nerve microenvironment and neurotrophic substances, supplying blood and oxygen and maintaining neural conduction and axonal transport. This paper...
Peripheral Neuropathy
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Peripheral Neuropathy
Involvement of brain opioid receptors in the anti-allodynic effect of hyperbaric oxygen in rats with sciatic nerve crush-induced neuropathic pain.
Abstract: Earlier research has demonstrated that hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) can produce an antinociceptive effect in models of acute pain. Recent studies have revealed that HBO2 can produce pain relief in animal models of chronic pain as well. The purpose of the present...
Effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on patients with herpes zoster.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to observe the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy on patients with herpes zoster. A total of 68 cases with herpes zoster were randomly divided into HBO2 and control groups. The patients in the control group were treated...

Bilateral brachial plexus injury following acute carbon monoxide poisoning.
Abstract: Carbon monoxide (CO) intoxication is a leading cause of severe neuropsychological impairments. Peripheral nerve injury has rarely been reported. It consists usually in a demyelinating polyneuropathy or mononeuropathy affecting mainly the lower limbs....
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for non-healing ulcers in diabetes mellitus: an evidence-based analysis.
Abstract: To examine the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to treat people with diabetes mellitus (DM) and non-healing ulcers. This policy appraisal systematically reviews the published literature in the above patient population,...
Peripheral neuropathy of the extremity after hyperbaric exposure.
Abstract: Neurological deficits occurring after diving or hyperbaric exposure are typically due to central nervous system decompression illness (DCI). However, consideration of alternate diagnoses is sometimes warranted. A 47-yr-old female hyperbaric technician...
Diabetic vascular disease: characteristics of vascular disease unique to the diabetic patient.
Abstract: Diabetes is a cardiovascular disease affecting almost every arterial vascular bed with significant consequences. Vascular disease is one part of a triopathy of complications that singularly but most commonly in combination makes the diabetic patient uniquely...
