It is characterized by transient osteopenia and by gradually increasing pain associated with a limitation of the range of motion of the hip. Bone marrow oedema is a typical but nonspecific finding in TOH.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
However, radiation exposure induces acute or chronicdermatitis, depending on the radiation dose, interval, tissue volume, or irradiated area of the body.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Despite intensive care treatment, face angioedema persisted for several days. On the basis of history, radioallergosorbent test (RAST) and prick tests, latex was assumed to be responsible for the anaphylactic reaction.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
There is insufficient evidence to support or reject the use of HBOT to quicken healing or to treat the established non-union of fractures.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Several studies show that diminished blood flow to these areas correlates with many of the clinical features associated with autism including repetitive, self-stimulatory and stereotypicalbehaviors, and impairments in communication, sensory perception[healing-arts.org]
Macroscopic hematuria resolved within a week, and microscopichematuria was no longer detectable within 2 weeks. Hematuria did not recur after 11 sessions of HBO therapy, and no significant side effects were observed during or after treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
., area to explore whether the patients who experienced seizures in the hyperbaric chamber had other medical comorbidities or were on medications which lowered their seizure threshold, thereby contributing to oxygen toxicity seizures.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Various reports show the occurrence of self-limiting seizures after carbon monoxide poisoning and as a consequence of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Contrary to the seizures, status epilepticus has been rarely observed in these conditions.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A seizure during decompression was observed in 2/59 participants (2/419 sessions).[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In this analysis, events are defined as otic/sinus barotrauma, confinement anxiety, hypoglycemia, oxygen toxicity, pneumothorax, seizure, and shortness of breath.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Each patient had risk factors for seizures, including hypercapnia secondary to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, narcotic withdrawal, alcohol dependence, and antidepressant, tramadol or cephalosporin/ceftriaxone use.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Group A was treated with conventional treatment plus HBOT. Group B was treated with conventional treatment only. Data collection included age, gender, clinical symptoms, pure-tone audiometry results and treatment outcome.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Full details of treatment costs in AUD were obtained (AUD 1.0, approx. EUR 0.6). A detailed patient diary accurately cross-referenced the consultations, investigations, admissions and treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We hypothesized that early treatment response could predict treatment failure.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Abstract Although radiation therapy is a common treatment for head and neck cancer, osteoradionecrosis (ORN) represents a major complication during or after treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
There was one case of transient eustachian tube dysfunction and three cases of reversible exudative otitis media as a consequence of HBO treatment. HBO is a potent treatment for PBS/IC patients resistant to conventional therapy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The primary outcomes in studies I and II will be endothelial biomarker levels after HBOT, and in study III suPAR levels as a marker of disease prognosis and severity.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the prognosis of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss when treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy and intravenous steroids.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
According to multivariate analysis, later onset of HBOT and higher initial hearing threshold were associated with a poor prognosis in ISSNHL patients treated with HBOT.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a neutrophilic dermatosis of unknown etiology characterized by an ulcerative skin condition and confirmed through a diagnosis of exclusion.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
There is no confirmed strategy for treating painful bladder syndrome/interstitial cystitis (PBS/IC) with unclear etiology.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The etiology of PG remains poorly understood, but a predominantly immunological pathogenesis involving neutrophil dysfunction seems most likely.[o-wm.com]
As far as it concerns the research data of the patients’ general history, diseases such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus and hypothyroidism did not seem to affect the etiology of the disease.[hsj.gr]

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the epidemiology of patients who require mechanical ventilation during hyperbaric oxygen therapy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The exact pathophysiology underlying seizures and status epilepticus associated with carbon monoxide poisoning and hyperbaric oxygen therapy is not really clear, and some elements appear to be common to both conditions.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
More fundamental research is also needed to clarify the pathophysiology of ORN, which in turn would help identify appropriate treatments.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

To date, there is no evidence to support the use of hyperbaric oxygen in the prevention of necrosis of airway reconstructions in humans.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The widespread use of such therapy for the prevention and treatment of ORN appears to be based mainly on personal beliefs and experience, as no consensus exists in the scientific literature about its efficacy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
