How does Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy increase cerebral flow?
How does Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy increase cerebral flow? Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can increase cerebral blood flow despite oxygen's vasoconstrictive properties through several mechanisms: Enhanced Oxygen Delivery: HBOT increases the amount of oxygen dissolved in the blood, significantly enhancing oxygen delivery to tissues. This can…
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in regulating oxidative stress
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in regulating oxidative stress Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) plays a multifaceted role in regulating oxidative stress several mechanisms: 1. Induction of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS): HBOT increases the partial pressure of oxygen in tissues, leading to the production of ROS. While…
Hyperbaric Oxygen is providing relief from the symptoms of Osteoarthritis
Hyperbaric Oxygen is providing relief from the symptoms of Osteoarthritis Osteoarthritis (OA) profoundly affects health, aging, and overall quality of life through multiple interconnected dimensions. Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) is significantly compromised, as the persistent pain and functional limitations associated with OA hinder physical,…
Hypoxia- Increasing treatment resistance in tumours
Hypoxia- Increasing treatment resistance in tumours Hypoxia, or low oxygen levels, in the tumor microenvironment significantly contributes to treatment resistance in cancer through several mechanisms: Altered Cellular Metabolism: Hypoxic conditions lead to a shift in tumor cell metabolism from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis, known as…
