Methods: 40 Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham, LPS, LPS + HBO2, LPS + HRS and LPS + HBO2 + HRS groups. ALI was induced by an intratracheal injection of LPS, then the rats were respectively given single agent treatment of HBO2 or HRS or HBO2 + HRS treatment. The treatments were continued for three days in an experimental rat model of ALI. At the end of the experiment, the lung pathological, inflammatory factors, and cell apoptosis in the pulmonary tissue were detected by Tunel method and cell apoptosis rate was calculated accordingly. Results: In the groups treated with HBO2 + HRS, pulmonary pathological data, wet-dry weight ratio and inflammatory factors of pulmonary tissues and aveolar lavage fluid were signficantly superiror to those of the sham group (p<0.05). Cell apoptosis detection revealed that no matter single agent treatment of HRS or HBO2, or combination treatment, could all alleviate cell apoptosis, and HRS combined with HBO2 treatment was obviously superior to single treatment (p<0.05). Conclusions: HRS or HBO2 single treatment could decrease inflammatory cytokines release in lung tissue, reduce accumulation of oxidative products and alleviate apoptosis of pulmoanry cells, then lead to positive therapeutic effects on ALI induced by LPS. Furthermore, HBO2 combined with HRS treatment presented a synergy effect on cell apoptosis decrease, and a declined trend in inflammatory cytokines release and related inflammatory products generation, compared with single treatment.","PeriodicalId":49396,"journal":{"name":"Undersea and Hyperbaric Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72611062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If the skin flap overlying the framework is thinned to achieve a smooth and accentuated outline, a poor blood supply in the thin skin flap may lead to skin necrosis, exposure of the framework, and poor surgical results. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy can promote the healing of complex wounds and flaps. This study sought to determine the effectiveness of HBO2 therapy for prevention of postoperative complications after framework grafting in microtia reconstruction. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated postoperative complications and compared outcomes in pediatric patients who underwent costal cartilage grafting for microtia reconstruction at our institution between 2011 and 2015 according to whether or not they received postoperative HBO2 therapy. HBO2 therapy was applied once daily for a total of 10 sessions starting on the first postoperative day. Results: During the study period, eight patients received HBO2 therapy after costal cartilage grafting and 12 did not. There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative ulcers. However, the incidence of framework exposure was lower and the healing time was shorter in patients who received HBO2 therapy than in those who did not. Discussion: HBO2 therapy can be used safely in pediatric patients to reduce postoperative complications and improve the aesthetic outcome of microtia reconstruction. After costal cartilage grafting, HBO2 therapy should be considered as adjuvant therapy.","PeriodicalId":49396,"journal":{"name":"Undersea and Hyperbaric Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82014868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Peripheral vasoconstriction, bradycardia and a decrease in cardiac output are observed during HBO2 therapy. These physiological effects of HBO2 therapy on the cardiovascular system are tolerated in healthy people. However, patients with underlying cardiac disease may experience severe problems during HBO2 therapy, such as pulmonary edema and death. Cardiac complications may occur in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Therefore, HBO2 therapy may have negative effects on cardiovascular physiology in patients with DM. The present study aimed to examine the cardiovascular effects of HBO2 therapy in diabetic patients. The findings of NT-ProBNP, troponin I, electrocardiography (ECG) of diabetic patients who applied to the Ministry of Health University Gülhane Training Research Underwater and Hyperbaric Medicine Clinic were compared before and after the first HBO2 therapy session. When ECG findings were analyzed at the end of a session of HBO2 exposure, a statistically significant increase was observed in the QTc, QTc dispersion measurements (p < 0.001, p = 0.015, respectively). In cardiac enzymes there was statistically significant increase in troponin I values after an HBO2 therapy session, but no statistically significant change was observed in Pro-BNP (p = 0.009, p = 0.300, respectively). Short-term exposure to HBO2 therapy had statistically significant changes in troponin I, QT and QTc in patients with DM, which did not reach clinical significance. Despite very little evidence of cardiac dysfunction, we recommend caution HBO2 therapy in patients with DM and the need for further investigation of these measurements.","PeriodicalId":49396,"journal":{"name":"Undersea and Hyperbaric Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90703286","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Oxidative stress is deeply involved in secondary brain injury, so molecular hydrogen therapy may be effective for TBI. Hydrogen gas shows the optimal effect at concentrations of 2% or higher, but can only be used up to 1.3% in the form of a gas cylinder mixed with oxygen gas, which may not be sufficiently effective. The partial pressure of hydrogen increases in proportion to the pressure, so hyperbaric hydrogen therapy (HBH2) is more effective than that at atmospheric pressure. Methods: A total of 120 mice were divided into three groups: TBI + non-treatment group (TBI group; n = 40), TBI + HBH2 group (n = 40), and non-TBI + non-treatment group (sham group; n = 40). The TBI and TBI + HBH2 groups were subjected to moderate cerebral contusion induced by controlled cortical impact. The TBI + HBH2 group received hyperbaric hydrogen therapy at 2 atmospheres for 90 minutes, at 30 minutes after TBI. Brain edema, neuronal cell loss in the injured hippocampus, neurological function, and cognitive function were evaluated. Results: The TBI + HBH2 group showed significantly less cerebral edema (p < 0.05). Residual hippocampal neurons were significantly more numerous in the TBI + HBH2 group on day 28 (p < 0.05). Neurological score and behavioral tests showed the TBI + HBH2 group had significantly reduced hyperactivity on day 14 (p < 0.01).
