Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although early reperfusion is the most effective strategy to salvage ischemic myocardium, reperfusion injury can develop with the restoration of blood flow. Therefore, it is important to identify protection mechanisms and strategies for the heart after myocardial infarction. Recent studies have shown that multiple intracellular molecules and signaling pathways are involved in cardioprotection. Meanwhile, device-based cardioprotective modalities such as cardiac left ventricular unloading, hypothermia, coronary sinus intervention, supersaturated oxygen (SSO2), and remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) have become important areas of research. Herein, we review the molecular mechanisms of cardioprotection and cardioprotective modalities after ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) to identify potential approaches to reduce mortality and improve prognosis in patients with AMI.

Abstract
Optimal medical therapy for secondary prevention following acute myocardial infarction reduces non-fatal ischaemic events. Intensive antithrombotic or lipid-lowering approaches have failed to significantly lower mortality. In the past, reduction of infarct size in patients undergoing primary percutaneous revascularisation for acute myocardial infarction had been considered as a surrogate outcome marker. However, infarct size measured by magnetic resonance imaging or SPECT is strongly associated with all-cause mortality and hospitalization for heart failure within the first year after an acute myocardial infarction. Intracoronary administration of super-saturated oxygen (SSO2) immediately after revascularisation is an approach that can be used to reduce infarct size and, therefore, improve cardiovascular outcome in patients with acute myocardial infarction. In this article, we describe the modulation of pathophysiology by SSO2, review the existing trial data and present our first impressions with the technique in real clinical practice.

Abstract
Patients with infective endocarditis (IE) form a heterogeneous group by age, co-morbidities and severity ranging from stable patients to patients with life-threatening complications with need for intensive care. A large proportion need surgical intervention. In-hospital mortality is 15-20%. The concept of using hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in other severe bacterial infections has been used for many decades supported by various preclinical and clinical studies. However, the availability and capacity of HBOT may be limited for clinical practice and we still lack well-designed studies documenting clinical efficacy. In the present review we highlight the potential beneficial aspects of adjunctive HBOT in patients with IE. Based on the pathogenesis and pathophysiological conditions of IE, we here summarize some of the important mechanisms and effects by HBOT in relation to infection and inflammation in general. In details, we elaborate on the aspects and impact of HBOT in relation to the host response, tissue hypoxia, biofilm, antibiotics and pathogens. Two preclinical (animal) studies have shown beneficial effect of HBOT in IE, but so far, no clinical study has evaluated the feasibility of HBOT in IE. New therapeutic options in IE are much needed and adjunctive HBOT might be a therapeutic option in certain IE patients to decrease morbidity and mortality and improve the long-term outcome of this severe disease.

Abstract
Cardiac reperfusion injury is a well-established outcome following treatment of acute myocardial infarction and other types of ischemic heart conditions. Numerous cardioprotection protocols and therapies have been pursued with success in pre-clinical models. Unfortunately, there has been lack of successful large-scale clinical translation, perhaps in part due to the multiple pathways that reperfusion can contribute to cell death. The search continues for new cardioprotection protocols based on what has been learned from past results. One class of cardioprotection protocols that remain under active investigation is that of controlled reperfusion. This class consists of those approaches that modify, in a controlled manner, the content of the reperfusate or the mechanical properties of the reperfusate (e.g., pressure and flow). This review article first provides a basic overview of the primary pathways to cell death that have the potential to be addressed by various forms of controlled reperfusion, including no-reflow phenomenon, ion imbalances (particularly calcium overload), and oxidative stress. Descriptions of various controlled reperfusion approaches are described, along with summaries of both mechanistic and outcome-oriented studies at the pre-clinical and clinical phases. This review will constrain itself to approaches that modify endogenously-occurring blood components. These approaches include ischemic postconditioning, gentle reperfusion, controlled hypoxic reperfusion, controlled hyperoxic reperfusion, controlled acidotic reperfusion, and controlled ionic reperfusion. This review concludes with a discussion of the limitations of past approaches and how they point to potential directions of investigation for the future.

Abstract
In this study, various composites of bioglass/gelatin/polycaprolactone (BG/GE/PCL) were produced and coated on the surface of 316L stainless steel (SS) to improve its bioactivity. X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) were utilized to characterize the specimens. The results showed that bioglass particles were distributed uniformly in the coating. By increasing the wt.% of bioglass in the nanocomposite coatings, the surface roughness and adhesion strength increased. The corrosion behavior of GE/PCL (PCL-10 wt.% gelatin coated on 316L SS) and 3BG/GE/PCL (GE/PCL including 3 wt.% bioglass coated on 316L SS) samples were studied in PBS solution. The results demonstrated that 3BG/GE/PCL sample improved the corrosion resistance drastically compared to the GE/PCL specimen. In vitro bioactivity of samples was examined after soaking the specimens for 7, 14 and 28 days in simulated body fluid (SBF). The results showed a significant apatite formation on the surface of 3BG/GE/PCL samples. The cell viability evaluation was performed using 3- (4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5 diphenyltetrazoliumbromide (MTT) tests which confirmed the enhanced cell viability on the surface of 3BG/GE/PCL samples. The in vivo behavior of specimens illustrated no toxicity and inflammatory response and was in a good agreement with the results obtained from the in vitro test.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a promising treatment modality for ischemic heart disease including myocardial infarction where outcomes are frequently poor despite early revascularization. OBJECTIVE To compare single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) findings in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with HBOT vs. control at 6 weeks. METHODS In this pilot study, 24 patients were randomly allocated to HBOT (n = 13) and control groups (n = 11). Both groups underwent PPCI and were treated following the guidelines for STEMI management. The HBOT group received additional 15 and 90-minute HBOT sessions. All participants underwent SPECT at initial presentation (within 48 h of PPCI) and at follow up. RESULTS Baseline characteristics were similar in both groups. The number of affected SPECT segments in the HBOT group at baseline and 6 weeks were 47.1 ± 14.6% vs. 33.7 ± 16.2%, respectively, with p = 0.039, and in the control group, the number of affected segment at these times were 55.5 ± 19.5% vs. 45.9 ± 17.9%, respectively, with p = 0.090. At follow-up, a decrease in the summed rest score was noted in both groups (HBOT: 20 ± 6.0 vs. 12.7 ± 8.1; p = 0.0017; control: 23 ± 8.2 vs. 16.7 ± 6.6; p = 0.031). The left ventricular ejection fraction in the HBOT group improved from 44 ± 22.1% to 57.2 ± 15.4% (p = 0.011) and in the control group from 45.9 ± 18.2% to 55 ± 12.1% (p = 0.044). CONCLUSIONS HBOT use in STEMI patients was associated with an improvement in perfusion and an increase in ejection fraction following PPCI. These observations warrant a larger randomized clinical trial.

Integrin-mediated adhesive properties of neutrophils are reduced by hyperbaric oxygen therapy in patients with chronic non-healing wound. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0237746.

Abstract
In recent years, several studies suggested that the ability of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to promote healing in patients with diabetic ulcers and chronic wounds is due to the reduction of inflammatory cytokines and to a significant decrease in neutrophils recruitment to the damaged area. α4 and β2 integrins are receptors mediating the neutrophil adhesion to the endothelium and the comprehension of the effects of hyperbaric oxygenation on their expression and functions in neutrophils could be of great importance for the design of novel therapeutic protocols focused on anti-inflammatory agents. In this study, the α4 and β2 integrins' expression and functions have been evaluated in human primary neutrophils obtained from patients with chronic non-healing wounds and undergoing a prolonged HBOT (150 kPa per 90 minutes). The effect of a peptidomimetic α4β1 integrin antagonist has been also analyzed under these conditions. A statistically significant decrease (68%) in β2 integrin expression on neutrophils was observed during the treatment with HBO and maintained one month after the last treatment, while α4 integrin levels remained unchanged. However, cell adhesion function of both neutrophilic integrins α4β1 and β2 was significantly reduced 70 and 67%, respectively), but α4β1 integrin was still sensitive to antagonist inhibition in the presence of fibronectin, suggesting that a combined therapy between HBOT and integrin antagonists could have greater antinflammatory efficacy.

Abstract
Among the mechanisms of action of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO), the chance of reducing injury by interfering with the mechanisms of redox homeostasis in the heart leads to the possibility of extending the period of viability of the myocardium at risk. This would benefit late interventions for reperfusion to the ischemic area. The objective of the present study was to investigate the changes in the redox system associated with HBO therapy maintained during the first hour after coronary occlusion in an acute myocardial infarction (MI) rat model. Surviving male rats (n=105) were randomly assigned to one of three groups: Sham (SH=26), myocardial infarction (MI=45) and infarction+hyperbaric therapy (HBO=34, 1 h at 2.5 atm). After 90 min of coronary occlusion, a sample of the heart was collected for western blot analysis of total protein levels of superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxiredoxin and 3‑nitrotyrosine. Glutathione was measured by enzyme‑linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The detection of the superoxide radical anion was carried out by oxidation of dihydroethidium analyzed with confocal microscopy. The mortality rate of the MI group was significantly higher than that of the HBO group. No difference was noted in the myocardial infarction size. The oxidized/reduced glutathione ratio and peroxiredoxin were significantly higher in the SH and MI when compared to the HBO group. Superoxide dismutase enzymes and catalase were significantly higher in the HBO group compared to the MI and SH groups. 3‑Nitrotyrosine and the superoxide radical were significantly lower in the HBO group compared to these in the MI and SH groups. These data demonstrated that hyperbaric oxygenation therapy decreased mortality by improving redox control in the hearts of rats in the acute phase of myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Exosomes are nanoscale membrane-bound extracellular vesicles secreted by most eukaryotic cells in the body that facilitates intercellular communication. Exosomes carry several signaling biomolecules, including miRNA, proteins, enzymes, cell surface receptors, growth factors, cytokines and lipids that can modulate target cell biology and function. Due to these capabilities, exosomes have emerged as novel intercellular signaling mediators in both homeostasis and pathophysiological conditions. Recent studies document that exosomes (both circulating or released from heart tissue) have been actively involved in cardiac remodeling in response to stressors. Also, exosomes released from progenitor/stem cells have protective effects in heart diseases and shown to have regenerative potential in the heart. In this review we discuss- the critical role played by circulating exosomes released from various tissues and from cells within the heart in cardiac health; the gap in knowledge that needs to be addressed to promote future research; and exploitation of recent advances in exosome engineering to develop novel therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In this substudy of the DETO2X-AMI (An Efficacy and Outcome Study of Supplemental Oxygen Treatment in Patients With Suspected Myocardial Infarction) trial, the authors aimed to assess the analgesic effect of moderate-flow oxygen supplementation in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction (AMI) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to study the effect of oxygen supplementation on the use of opiates and sedatives during PCI. BACKGROUND Routine oxygen in normoxemic patients with AMI does not provide clinical benefit. However, oxygen may relieve ischemic pain. METHODS Patients were randomly allocated to oxygen or ambient air according to the main study protocol. After PCI, peak level of pain during PCI was measured by the Visual Analogue Scale. The total amount of opiates and sedatives was reported. RESULTS A total of 622 patients were enrolled: 330 in the oxygen group and 292 in the ambient air group. There was no significant difference in peak level of pain (oxygen 4.0 [1.0 to 6.0] vs. air 3.0 [0.6 to 6.0]; p = 0.37), use of opiates (mg) (oxygen 0.0 [0.0 to 3.0] vs. air 0.0 [0.0 to 3.0]; p = 0.31), or use of sedatives between the groups (median [interquartile range]) (oxygen 2.5 [0.0 to 2.5] vs. air 2.5 [0.0 to 2.5]; p = 0.74). CONCLUSIONS In the present study, the authors did not find any analgesic effect of routine oxygen as compared with ambient air, and no differences in the use of sedatives and opiates during PCI. Our results indicate that moderate-flow oxygen supplementation does not relieve pain in normoxemic patients with suspected AMI undergoing treatment with PCI and should thus not be used for this purpose.

Abstract
RATIONALE Acute myocardial infarction is a rare complication of carbon monoxide poisoning. there is often no chest pain and other typical manifestations. We report a patient with mild carbon monoxide poisoning who had acute dyspnea as the earliest symptom and was later diagnosed with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and acute left heart failure. PATIENT CONCERNS A 73-year-old woman complained of dizziness and fatigue with shortness of breath after carbon monoxide intoxication. DIAGNOSES This patient had a clear history of carbon monoxide poisoning, acute respiratory distress, bilateral lung dry and moist rale, chest X-ray showed bilateral pulmonary edema, Electrocardiograph indicated general depression of the ST segment of the leads in the chest, cardiac troponin I (CTNI) increased progressively, cardiac ultrasonography indicated abnormal ventricular wall movement, coronary angiography suggested left main trunk and 3-vessel lesions, suggesting diagnosis acute carbon monoxide poisoning, acute coronary syndrome, acute left heart failure. INTERVENTIONS She was treated with a high concentration of oxygen, an inhibitor of platelet aggregation (aspirin plus clopidogrel), an anticoagulant (low molecular weight heparin), an antimicrobial (ceftizoxime), an expectorant (mucosolvan), diuresis (furosemide and spironolactone), and myocardial support (Metoprolol). Coronary angiography and stent placement were performed 8 days later. OUTCOME On the 10th day after onset of the condition, echocardiography was performed, which showed that cardiac function was improved. Mild segmental wall motion abnormality was observed on echocardiography. After 14 days, the patient had recovered well and was discharged without chest tightness, chest pain, dizziness, headache, or unresponsiveness. LESSONS This case suggests that the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are complex and diverse. It can be manifested as a primary hypoxic symptom, or cause the exacerbation of underlying diseases due to hypoxia. Therefore, patients with carbon monoxide poisoning should actively seek comprehensive cardiac examination to ensure early diagnosis. Whenever necessary, coronary angiography and stent implantation should be performed to improve the likelihood of the patient's survival.

Abstract
Hyperbaric Oxygenation Therapy (HBOT) is used as an adjunctive method for multiple diseases. The method meets the routine treating and is non-invasive, as well as provides 100% pure oxygen (O2), which is at above-normal atmospheric pressure in a specialized chamber. It is well known that in the condition of O2 deficiency, it will induce a series of adverse events. In order to prevent the injury induced by anoxia, the capability of offering pressurized O2 by HBOT seems involuntary and significant. In recent years, HBOT displays particular therapeutic efficacy in some degree, and it is thought to be beneficial to the conditions of angiogenesis, tissue ischemia and hypoxia, nerve system disease, diabetic complications, malignancies, Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning and chronic radiation-induced injury. Single and combination HBOT are both applied in previous studies, and the manuscript is to review the current applications and possible mechanisms of HBOT. The applicability and validity of HBOT for clinical treatment remain controversial, even though it is regarded as an adjunct to conventional medical treatment with many other clinical benefits. There also exists a negative side effect of accepting pressurized O2, such as oxidative stress injury, DNA damage, cellular metabolic, activating of coagulation, endothelial dysfunction, acute neurotoxicity and pulmonary toxicity. Then it is imperative to comprehensively consider the advantages and disadvantages of HBOT in order to obtain a satisfying therapeutic outcome.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI), which occurs often due to acute ischemia followed by reflow, is associated with irreversible loss (death) of cardiomyocytes. If left untreated, MI will lead to progressive loss of viable cardiomyocytes, deterioration of cardiac function, and congestive heart failure. While supplemental oxygen therapy has long been in practice to treat acute MI, there has not been a clear scientific basis for the observed beneficial effects. Further, there is no rationale for the amount or duration of administration of supplemental oxygenation for effective therapy. The goal of the present study was to determine an optimum oxygenation protocol that can be clinically applicable for treating acute MI. Using EPR oximetry, we studied the effect of exposure to supplemental oxygen cycling (OxCy) administered by inhalation of 21–100% oxygen for brief periods (15–90 min), daily for 5 days, using a rat model of acute MI. Myocardial oxygen tension (pO2), cardiac function and pro-survival/apoptotic signaling molecules were used as markers of treatment outcome. OxCy resulted in a significant reduction of infarct size and improvement of cardiac function. An optimal condition of 30-min OxCy with 95% oxygen + 5% CO2 under normobaric conditions was found to be effective for cardioprotection.

Abstract
Intravenous recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (r-tPA, alteplase) remains the recommended therapy for acute ischemic stroke. However, several factors are limiting its practical use. It makes it urgent for us to search more efficient strategies that can save the ischemic neurons, and safely extend the time window, while in the mean time reducing the detrimental effects for stroke thrombolysis. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is considered to be potentially neuroprotective. Co-administration of r-tPA and HBOT has already been proved to be effective, safe and feasible in myocardial infarction. In this article, we would like to review whether HBOT has any beneficial effects on r-tPA thrombolysis. If there is, what is the underlying possible mechanisms and how to optimize for maximal effects?

Abstract
BACKGROUND Doxorubicin (DOX) is generally recognized to have important cardiotoxic side effects. Studies are contradictory about the interaction between hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy and doxorubicin-induced cardiomyotoxicity. Recent data suggests that HBO2 therapy can lead to preconditioning of myocardium while generating oxidative stress. Herein we have investigated the effect of HBO2 therapy in a DOX-induced cardiomyocyte injury animal model. METHODS Twenty-one rats were divided into three equal groups as follows: 1) Group 1 is a control group (without any intervention), used for evaluating the basal cardiac structures and determining the normal value of cardiacs and serum oxidative markers; 2) Group 2 is the doxorubicin group (single dose i.p. 20 mg/kg doxorubicin) for detecting the cardiotoxic and systemic effects of doxorubicin; 3) Group 3 is the doxorubicin and HBO2 group (100% oxygen at 2.5 atmospheric for 90 minutes, daily), for evaluating the effect of HBO2 in doxorubicin induced cardiotoxicity. At the end of the protocols, the hearts were harvested and blood samples (2 ml) were obtained. RESULTS The doxorubicin treated animals (Group 2) had increased oxidative stress markers (both cardiac and serum) and severe cardiac injury as compared to the basal findings in the control group. Nevertheless, the highest cardiac oxidative stress index was detected in Group 3 (control vs. Group 3, p = 0.01). However, histological examination revealed that cardiac structures were well preserved in Group 3 when compared with Group 2. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that HBO2 preconditioning appears to be protective in the doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity model. Future studies are required to better elucidate the basis of this preconditioning effect of HBO2.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide poisoning has been documented in literature to cause severe neurological and tissue toxicity within the body. However, cardiotoxicity is often overlooked, but not uncommon. Previous research studies and case reports have revealed a significant relationship between carbon monoxide intoxication and myocardial ischemic events. We report a case of a 48-year-old male, who was exposed to severe smoke inhalation due to a house fire and subsequently developed a non-ST elevation myocardial infarction. Ischemic changes were evident on electrocardiogram, which demonstrated T-wave inversion in lead III and ST-segment depression in leads V4-V6. Elevated cardiac enzymes were also present. After standard treatment for an acute cardiac event, the patient fully recovered. This case demonstrates that myocardial ischemic changes due to carbon monoxide poisoning may be reversible if recognized in early stages and treated appropriately, thus reminding physicians that a proper cardiovascular examination and diagnostic testing should be performed on all patients with carbon monoxide poisoning. Abbreviations: NSTEMI: Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypoxemic respiratory failure is a common problem in critical care. Current management strategies, including mechanical ventilation and extracorporeal membranous oxygenation, can be efficacious but these therapies put patients at risk for toxicities associated with invasive forms of support. Areas covered: In this manuscript, we discuss intravenous oxygen (IVO2), a novel method to improve oxygen delivery that involves intravenous administration of a physiologic solution containing dissolved oxygen at hyperbaric concentrations. After a brief review of the physiology behind supersaturated fluids, we summarize the current evidence surrounding IVO2. Expert commentary: Although not yet at the stage of clinical testing in the United States and Europe, IVO2 has been used safely in Asia. Furthermore, preliminary laboratory data have been encouraging, suggesting that IVO2 may play a role in the management of patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure in years to come. However, significantly more work needs to be done, including definitive evidence that such a therapy is safe, before it can be included in an intensivist's arsenal for hypoxemic respiratory failure.

Abstract
Trauma represents the leading cause of death among young people in western countries. Among the beneficial role of neutrophils in host defence, excessive priming and activation of neutrophils after major trauma lead to an overwhelming inflammatory response and secondary host tissue injury due to the release of toxic metabolites and enzymes. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy has been proposed to possess antiinflammatory effects and might represent an appropriate therapeutic option to lower inflammation in a broad range of patients. Here, we studied the effects of HBO on the activity of neutrophils isolated from severely injured patients (days 1–2 after trauma), in fact on the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). We found exposure to HBO therapy to significantly diminish phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA)-induced ROS production in neutrophils isolated from patients and healthy volunteers. At the same time, marked decrease in NETs release was found in control cells and a less pronounced reduction in patient neutrophils. Impaired ability to produce ROS following exposure to HBO was demonstrated to be linked to a strong downregulation of the activity of p38 MAPK. Only slight suppression of ERK activity could be found. In addition, HBO did not influence neutrophil chemotaxis or apoptosis, respectively. Collectively, this study shows for the first time that HBO therapy suppresses ROS production in inflammatory human neutrophils, and thus might impair ROS-dependent pathways, e.g. kinases activation and NETs release. Thus, HBO might represent a feasible therapy for patients suffering from systemic inflammation, including those with multiple trauma.

Abstract
Background Improvement in the outcome of organ transplantation is related to advances in patient selection criteria, organ preservation, operative techniques, perioperative care and efficacy of immunosuppressive agents. Objectives We aimed to evaluate the effects of higher levels of arterial PaO2 in donors on DGF (delayed graft function). Patients and Methods Forty patients over 18 years old with stage 4-5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) who received a kidney from living donors were enrolled. They were randomly grouped in to the case (n = 17) and control (n = 23) groups and were followed for 2 weeks after transplantation. Donors were exposed to 60% oxygen for at least 2 hours with a face-mask (venture mask) for 2 consecutive days before transplantation until arterial oxygen pressure increased in arterial blood gas to 200 mmHg. Neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL), Interleuk-18 (IL-18), tumor necrosis factor- α (TNF-α) and transforming growth factor–β (TGF-β) could be good biomarkers for early diagnosis of kidney injury in renal transplant recipients; we assessed kidney function with these biomarkers. Results Forty living kidney transplantations including 17 cases and 23 controls were performed; female gender was more prevalent in recipients (n = 16, 40%). The mean age of recipients was 36.1 ± 12.4 (18-67) years old. DGF was detected in 2 (5.95%) individuals, from whom one was in the case group and the other one in the control group. In the univariate analysis, there was no significant correlation between age and biomarkers in urine and serum unless for the second serum NGAL (P = 0.02, r = -0.06) and second urine IL 18 (P = 0.03, r = -0.5) which had a negative correlation, and first urine TNF α (P = 0.02, r = 0.7) which had a positive correlation. Conclusions Oxygen therapy in the case group had no significant impact on protection from DGF.

The effect of hyperbaric oxygen on nitric oxide synthase activity and expression in ischemia-reperfusion injury. J Surg Res 2013; 183:355-61. [PMID: 23485074 DOI: 10.1016/j.jss.2013.01.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2012] [Revised: 12/20/2012] [Accepted: 01/03/2013] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) mitigates ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury via a nitric oxide mechanism that is nitric oxide synthase (NOS) dependent. The purpose of this study was to investigate this NOS-dependent mechanism by examining isoform-specific, tissue-specific, and time-specific upregulation of NOS mRNA, protein, and enzymatic activity. METHODS We raised a gracilis flap in Wistar rats that were separated into early and late phases. Treatment groups included nonischemic control, IR, HBO-treated ischemia-reperfusion (IR-HBO), and nonischemic HBO control. We harvested tissue-specific samples from gracilis, rectus femoris, aorta, and pulmonary tissues and processed them by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blot to determine upregulation of isoform-specific NOS mRNA and protein. We also harvested tissue for NOS activity to investigate upregulation of enzymatic activity. Data are presented as mean ± standard error of the mean with statistics performed by analysis of variance. P ≤ 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS There was no increase in NOS mRNA in the early phase. In the late phase, there was a significant increase in endothelial-derived NOS (eNOS) mRNA in IR-HBO compared with IR in gracilis muscle (79.4 ± 22.3 versus 36.1 ± 4.5; P < 0.05) and pulmonary tissues (91.0 ± 31.2 versus 30.2 ± 3.1; P < 0.01). There was a significant increase in the late-phase eNOS pulmonary protein IR-HBO group compared with IR (235.5 ± 46.8 versus 125.2 ± 14.7; P < 0.05). Early-phase NOS activity was significantly increased in IR-HBO compared with IR in pulmonary tissue only (0.049 ± 0.009 versus 0.023 ± 0.003; P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The NOS-dependent effects of HBO on IR injury may result from a systemic effect involving an early increase in eNOS enzymatic activity followed by a late-phase increase in eNOS protein expression within the pulmonary tissues.

Abstract
Cardiac function is compromised by oxidative stress which occurs upon exposing the heart to ischemia reperfusion (I/R) for a prolonged period. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are generated during I/R incur extensive damage to the myocardium and result in subcellular organelle remodeling. The cardiac nucleus, glycocalyx, myofilaments, sarcoplasmic reticulum, sarcolemma, and mitochondria are affected by ROS during I/R injury. On the other hand, brief periods of ischemia followed by reperfusion, or ischemic preconditioning (IPC), have been shown to be cardioprotective against oxidative stress by attenuating the cellular damage and alterations of subcellular organelles caused by subsequent I/R injury. Endogenous defense mechanisms, such as antioxidant enzymes and heat shock proteins, are activated by IPC and thus prevent damage caused by oxidative stress. Although these cardioprotective effects of IPC against I/R injury are considered to be a consequence of changes in the redox state of cardiomyocytes, IPC is considered to promote the production of NO which may protect subcellular organelles from the deleterious actions of oxidative stress. The article is intended to focus on the I/R-induced oxidative damage to subcellular organelles and to highlight the cardioprotective effects of IPC. In addition, the actions of various endogenous cardioprotective interventions are discussed to illustrate that changes in the redox state due to IPC are cardioprotective against I/R injury to the heart.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the cerebral and myocardial protective effects of hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning in both on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery. DESIGN A prospective, randomized, single-blinded study including patients scheduled for elective on-pump or off-pump surgery between December 2007 and February 2009. SETTING A tertiary care university teaching hospital. PARTICIPANTS Forty-nine elective on-pump or off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery patients. INTERVENTIONS Patients were randomized to either the control (15 patients with on-pump procedure and 10 patients with off-pump procedure, respectively) or hyperbaric oxygen (HBO; 14 patients with on-pump procedure and 10 patients with off-pump procedure, respectively) groups. Patients in the HBO groups underwent preconditioning for 5 days before surgery. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS On-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery patients preconditioned with HBO had significant decreases in S100B protein, neuron-specific enolase, and troponin I perioperative serum levels compared with the on-pump control group. Postsurgically, patients in the on-pump HBO group had a reduced length of stay in the intensive care unit and a decreased use of inotropic drugs. Serum catalase activity 24 hours postoperatively was significantly increased compared with the on-pump control group. In the off-pump groups, there was no difference in any of the same parameters. CONCLUSIONS Preconditioning with HBO resulted in both cerebral and cardiac protective effects as determined by biochemical markers of neuronal and myocardial injury and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery. No protective effects were noted in off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Abstract
Stem-cell transplantation to treat acute myocardial infarction (MI) is gaining importance as a minimally invasive and potent therapy to replace akinetic scar tissue by viable myocardium. Our recent studies have shown that stem-cell transplantation marginally improves myocardial oxygenation in the infarct tissue leading to improvement in cardiac function. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment on myocardial oxygenation and recovery of function in MI hearts. Fisher-344 rats were subjected to MI by permanently ligating the left-anterior-descending (LAD) coronary artery. The rats were then exposed to 100% O(2) at a pressure of 2 atmospheres for 90 minutes, and the exposure was repeated for 5 days a week for 2 weeks. Adult bone-marrow-derived rat mesenchymal stem cells (MSC, 5x10⁵ cells) were mixed with OxySpin (LiNc- BuO, oxygen sensor) and implanted in the infarct and peri-infarct regions of the heart. M-mode ultrasound echocardiography was performed at baseline and at 2 weeks post-transplantation. The myocardial pO(2) in the MSC+HBO group (16.2±2.2 mmHg) was significantly higher when compared to untreated MI (3.8±1.9 mmHg) or MSC (9.8±2.3 mmHg) groups. In addition, there was a significant improvement in cardiac function, increased vessel density, and VEGF expression in MSC+HBO group compared to MSC group (p < 0.05). In conclusion, the results suggested a beneficial effect of HBO administration on stem-cell therapy for MI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury occurs in both native and transplanted kidneys. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has been shown to prevent I/R injury in different tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of HBO on renal I/R injury in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to three groups. The sham group (n = 8) received right nephrectomy. The I/R (n = 8) and HBO + I/R groups (n = 8) received 45 min left renal ischemia followed by 24 h of reperfusion after right nephrectomy. The HBO + I/R group (n = 8) received 100% oxygen at 2.5 atmosphere absolute (ATA), for 1 h at every 12 h interval for 2 d. Reperfusion was performed 24 h later after the last HBO exposure. RESULTS In HBO + I/R group, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine levels decreased significantly compared with the sham and I/R groups (P < 0.01). Activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) were increased in renal tissue in the HBO + I/R groups. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA) were decreased in the HBO + I/R groups. Kidney samples from HBO + I/R group rats revealed markedly reduced histological damage under histopathological examination. The animals treated with HBO showed significantly elevated heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protein and mRNA levels expression compared with I/R group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning (HBO-PC) can protect renal I/R injury against oxidative stress, and the up-regulation of HO-1 expression plays an essential role in HBO induced preconditioning effect.

Lethal myocardial reperfusion injury: a necessary evil? Int J Cardiol 2010; 151:3-11.

Abstract
Despite being the most effective means of limiting infarct size, coronary reperfusion comes at a price and induces additional damage to the myocardium. Lethal reperfusion injury (death of myocytes that were viable at the time of reperfusion) is an increasingly acknowledged phenomenon. There are many interconnected mechanisms involved in this type of cell death. Calcium overload (generating myocyte hypercontracture), rapid recovery of physiological pH, neutrophil infiltration of the ischemic area, opening of the mitochondrial permeability-transition-pore (PTP), and apoptotic cell death are among the more important mechanisms involved in reperfusion injury. The activation of a group of proteins called reperfusion injury salvage kinases (RISK) pathway confers protection against reperfusion injury, mainly by inhibiting the opening of the mitochondrial PTP. Many interventions have been tested in human trials triggered by encouraging animal studies. In the present review we will explain in detail the main mechanism involved in reperfusion injury, as well as the various approaches (pre-clinical and human trials) performed targeting these mechanisms. Currently, no intervention has been consistently shown to reduce reperfusion injury in large randomized multicenter trials, but the research in this field is intense and the future is highly promising.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperbaric oxygen decreases ischemia-reperfusion-induced neutrophil/intercellular adhesion molecule-1 adhesion by blocking CD18 polarization. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether this hyperbaric oxygen effect is nitric oxide dependent and to determine whether nitric oxide synthase is required. METHODS A gracilis muscle flap was raised in nine groups of male Wistar rats. Global ischemic injury was induced by clamping the gracilis muscle pedicle artery and vein for 4 hours. The hyperbaric oxygen treatment consisted of 100% oxygen at 2.5 atm absolute during the last 90 minutes of ischemia. Groups were repeated with and without various nitric oxide synthase inhibitors and carboxy-2-phenyl-4,4,5,5,-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide (C-PTIO), a nitric oxide scavenger. Normal neutrophils were exposed to activated plasma on intercellular adhesion molecule-1-coated coverslips (percentage adherent) and labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate/antirat-CD11b for confocal microscopy (percentage polarized). The percentage of adherent and polarized cells was reported as mean + or - SEM. Statistical analysis was by analysis of variance. A value of p < or = 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS C-PTIO-treated ischemia-reperfusion/hyperbaric oxygen plasma showed a significant increase in the percentage polarization of CD18 compared with ischemia-reperfusion/hyperbaric oxygen-untreated plasma from 4.1 + or - 2.5 percent to 33.7 + or - 7.7 percent (p < or = 0.05). The nitric oxide scavenger C-PTIO also increased the percentage of adherent cells from 1.6 + or - 0.4 percent to 20.3 + or - 5.9 percent (p < or = 0.05). Administration of N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester and other nitric oxide synthase inhibitors before hyperbaric oxygen treatment restored neutrophil adhesion and CD18 polarization to ischemia-reperfusion control values, significantly greater than ischemia-reperfusion/hyperbaric oxygen alone. CONCLUSION These results suggest that the hyperbaric oxygen reduction of ischemia-reperfusion-induced neutrophil polarization of CD18 and adherence to intercellular adhesion molecule-1 is mediated through a nitric oxide mechanism that requires nitric oxide synthase.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is caused by deprivation of oxygen and nutrients to the cardiac tissue due to blockade of coronary artery. It is a major contributor to chronic heart disease, a leading cause of mortality in the modern world. Oxygen is required to meet the constant energy demands for heart contractility, and also plays an important role in the regulation of heart function. However, reoxygenation of the ischemic myocardium upon restoration of blood flow may lead to further injury. Controlled oxygen delivery during reperfusion has been advocated to prevent this consequence. Monitoring the myocardial oxygen concentration would play a vital role in understanding the pathological changes in the ischemic heart following myocardial infarction. During the last two decades, several new techniques have become available to monitor myocardial oxygen concentration in vivo. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) oximetry would appear to be the most promising and reliable of these techniques. EPR utilizes crystalline probes which yield a single sharp line, the width of which is highly sensitive to oxygen tension. Decreased oxygen tension results in a sharpening of the EPR spectrum, while an increase results in widening. In our recent studies, we have used EPR oximetry as a valuable tool to monitor myocardial oxygenation for several applications like ischemia-reperfusion injury, stem-cell therapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The results obtained from these studies have demonstrated the importance of tissue oxygen in the application of stem-cell therapy to treat ischemic heart tissues. These results have been summarized in this review article.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine whether preconditioning coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with HBO(2) prior to first-time elective on-pump cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) leads to improved myocardial left ventricular stroke work (LVSW) post CABG. The primary end point of this study was to demonstrate that preconditioning CAD patients with HBO(2) prior to on-pump CPB CABG leads to a statistically significant (P<.05) improvement in myocardial LVSW 24 h post CABG. METHODS This randomised control study consisted of 81 (control group=40; HBO(2) group=41) patients who had CABG using CPB. Only the HBO(2) group received HBO(2) preconditioning for two 30-min intervals separated 5 min apart. HBO(2) treatment consisted of 100% oxygen at 2.4 ATA. Pulmonary artery catheters were used to obtain perioperative hemodynamic measurements. All routine perioperative clinical outcomes were recorded. Venous blood was taken pre HBO(2), post HBO(2) (HBO(2) group only), and during the perioperative period for analysis of troponin T. RESULTS Prior to CPB, the HBO(2) group had significantly lower pulmonary vascular resistance (P=.03). Post CPB, the HBO(2) group had increased stroke volume (P=.01) and LVSW (P=.005). Following CABG, there was a smaller rise in troponin T in HBO(2) group suggesting that HBO(2) preconditioning prior to CABG leads to less postoperative myocardial injury. Post CABG, patients in the HBO(2) group had an 18% (P=.05) reduction in length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU). Intraoperatively, the HBO(2) group had a 57% reduction in intraoperative blood loss (P=.02). Postoperatively, the HBO(2) group had a reduction in blood loss (11.6%), blood transfusion (34%), low cardiac output syndrome (10.4%), inotrope use (8%), atrial fibrillation (11%), pulmonary complications (12.7%), and wound infections (7.6%). Patients in the HBO(2) group saved US$116.49 per ICU hour. CONCLUSION This study met its primary end point and demonstrated that preconditioning CAD patients with HBO(2) prior to on-pump CPB CABG was capable of improving LVSW. Additionally, this study also showed that HBO(2) preconditioning prior to CABG reduced myocardial injury, intraoperative blood loss, ICU length of stay, postoperative complications, and saved on cost, post CABG.

Abstract
Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a complex process resulting in cellular damage and death. Many studies have reported that an ischemic preconditioning could induce protection against ischemic insult. However, the safety concerns and practical feasibility have limited the application of ischemia preconditioning in practice. Subsequently, a number of substances including endotoxin and cytokines etc. have proven effective in inducing ischemic tolerance in the neurocyte. Unfortunately, the application of these substances to the clinical practice of neurosurgery still remains questionable for their toxicity or side effects. Therefore, a novel therapy to protect against cerebral IRI requires further study. Several recent studies confirmed that repeated hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning (HBO-PC) prior to cerebral ischemia or spinal cord ischemia can provide neuroprotection. HBO as a therapeutic measure has been widely accepted for its convenience and safety. However, information about the mechanism of how this neuroprotection works is still very limited. We hypothesize that autophagy induction is involved in HBO-PC induced neuroprotection on IRI in neurocyte. The hypothesis reveals that autophagy may be a new therapeutic target for cerebral IRI.

Abstract
Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) was first used by placing a patient with the "bends" in a pressure chamber and increasing the pressure to 3 atm with 100% oxygen. It was soon recognized that HBO could also facilitate wound healing in infected ischemic extremities. Before the pump oxygenator was developed, it was also shown to facilitate corrective surgery, especially in congenital heart disease. In 1997, after encouraging animal work, HBO therapy was used in conjunction with thrombolytics to reduce the magnitude of injury in patients with acute myocardial infarction. The benefit is probably due to the decrease in reperfusion injury, which has been shown to be a major cause of myocardial cell death when the culprit artery is opened with a catheter. The most recent development is to infuse saline saturated with HBO into the opened coronary artery immediately after angioplasty. An advantage of this treatment has been demonstrated in experimental animals and in man. Future applications of HBO treatment in cardiovascular disease await more research, but at this time it seems to have considerable promise.

Abstract
A major limitation to the application of stem-cell therapy to repair ischemic heart damage is the low survival of transplanted cells in the heart, possibly due to poor oxygenation. We hypothesized that hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) can be used as an adjuvant treatment to augment stem-cell therapy. Therefore, the goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of HBO on the engraftment of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) transplanted in infarct rat hearts. Myocardial infarction (MI) was induced in Fisher-344 rats by permanently ligating the left-anterior-descending coronary artery. MSCs, labeled with fluorescent superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) particles, were transplanted in the infarct and peri-infarct regions of the MI hearts. HBO (100% oxygen at 2 ATA for 90 min) was administered daily for 2 weeks. Four MI groups were used: untreated (MI); HBO; MSC; MSC+HBO. Echocardiography, electro-vectorcardiography, and magnetic resonance imaging were used for functional evaluations. The engraftment of transplanted MSCs in the heart was confirmed by SPIO fluorescence and Prussian-blue staining. Immunohistochemical staining was used to identify key cellular and molecular markers including CD29, troponin-T, connexin-43, VEGF, alpha-smooth-muscle actin, and von Willebrand factor in the tissue. Compared to MI and MSC groups, the MSC+HBO group showed a significantly increased recovery of cardiac function including left-ventricular (LV) ejection fraction, fraction shortening, LV wall thickness, and QRS vector. Further, HBO treatment significantly increased the engraftment of CD29-positive cells, expression of connexin-43, troponin-T and VEGF, and angiogenesis in the infarct tissue. Thus, HBO appears to be a potential and clinically-viable adjuvant treatment for myocardial stem-cell therapy.

Abstract
1. Because in ischaemia there is a critical lack of O2, it has been reasoned that increasing O2 delivery to the ischaemic myocardium could serve as adjunctive therapy for acute myocardial infarction (MI). Accordingly, in the present study, the effect of early hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) on mortality and MI size after coronary occlusion was examined in rats. 2. After coronary occlusion, male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to receive either HBO for 1 h in a hyperbaric chamber (100% O(2) at 253 kPa; n = 106) or ambient O2 as the control (n = 111). The extent of myocardial necrosis was assessed (triphenyltetrazolium) immediately after treatment in the HBO (n = 50) and control (n = 47) groups. The remaining rats were evaluated 24 h after occlusion to enable calculation of MI size and mortality. 3. Immediately after therapy, the size of the MI was significantly greater in the control group compared with that in the HBO group (40 +/- 3 vs 27 +/- 2% of the left ventricle (LV), respectively; P < 0.001). The 24 h mortality of control rats was higher than that of HBO rats (34 vs 16%, respectively; P = 0.02). Control rats that survived 24 h had a larger MI than did HBO rats that survived 24 h (40 +/- 4 vs 29 +/- 3% of the LV, respectively; P = 0.005). Furthermore, large necrotic areas (> 40% of the LV) were more frequent in control than HBO rats (55 vs 27% of infarcted hearts, respectively; P = 0.01). There was less pulmonary congestion observed in HBO rats compared with control rats. 4. In conclusion, early therapy with HBO during the onset of an acute ischaemic event decreases the necrotic area and reduces acute mortality. These data support further investigation of HBO as an adjuvant therapy for acute MI.

Abstract
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a technology that involves oxygen treatment at supra-atmospheric pressures in high concentrations, generating increased levels of physically dissolved oxygen in blood plasma. This form of transported oxygen, compared with oxygen chemically bound to hemoglobin, is able to enter tissues with minimal or almost no blood flow. Experimental studies have suggested that hyperoxemia provided by hyperbaric oxygen may be beneficial in the treatment of reperfusion injury. Organs procured from brain-dead hyperbaric oxygen-treated donors may have less cellular injury from ischemia, reperfusion, and no-reflow phenomenon, thus yielding organs in an optimized state for transplantation. This current report consists of a gratifying experience about hyperbaric oxygen treatment playing a possible role on preservation of donor organs in vivo. In the siblings reported here, improved organ function prior to transplantation and the successful organ functioning after transplantation suggests the possible beneficial effect of hyperbaric oxygen treatment on the ischemic insult generated from brain death and repetitive cardiac arrests. Hyperbaric oxygen seems to be a promising candidate as a bridge to transplantation, keeping the donated organs viable until the harvesting procedure can take place for potential brain dead donors. This experience may lead to further investigations on hyperbaric oxygen's role in donor organ preservation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) pretreatment in massive hepatectomy model, a surrogate model of small-for-size graft, using rats. METHODS (Experiment I) Rats were divided into the following four groups: HBO (-), HBO-1D (day), HBO-3D, and HBO-5D. Samples were taken after the completion of HBO pretreatment, and the following parameters were evaluated: reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemical staining for HSP 70 and HO-1; biochemical parameters; and liver weight to body weight ratio (Lw/Bw ratio). (Experiment II) Rats were divided into four groups as follows; 70% hepatectomy (Hx), 70% Hx-HBO, 90% Hx, and 90% Hx-HBO group. Samples were taken 12, 24, 48, and 72 hr after hepatectomy and the following parameters were investigated: biochemical analysis; Lw/Bw ratio; PCNA labeling index; and survival. RESULTS (Experiment I) The expression of HSP70 mRNA was significantly increased in the HBO-3D group compared with the HBO (-) group (P<0.05). HSP70- and HO-1-positive hepatocytes were significantly increased in the HBO-3D group compared with the HBO (-) group (P<0.05). (Experiment II) Transaminases were significantly decreased in both 70% and 90% Hx-HBO groups compared with Hx alone group (P<0.05). The Lw/Bw ratio and PCNA labeling index of the 90% Hx-HBO group were significantly increased compared with the 90% Hx group, 24, 48 and 72 hr after hepatectomy (P<0.05). The survival rate in the 90% Hx-HBO group was significantly higher than that in the 90% Hx group (P=0.01). CONCLUSIONS HBO pretreatment had beneficial effects in a massive hepatectomy model in rats via the induction of HSP70 and HO-1.

Abstract
Myocardial function is dependent on a constant supply of oxygen from the coronary circulation. A reduction of oxygen supply due to coronary obstruction results in myocardial ischemia, which leads to cardiac dysfunction. Reperfusion of the ischemic myocardium is required for tissue survival. Thrombolytic therapy, coronary artery bypass surgery and coronary angioplasty are some of the treatments available for the restoration of blood flow to the ischemic myocardium. However, the restoration of blood flow may also lead to reperfusion injury, resulting in myocyte death. Thus, any imbalance between oxygen supply and metabolic demand leads to functional, metabolic, morphologic, and electrophysiologic alterations, causing cell death. Myocardial ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury is a multifactorial process that is mediated by oxygen free radicals, neutrophil activation and infiltration, calcium overload, and apoptosis. Controlled reperfusion of the ischemic myocardium has been advocated to prevent the IR injury. Studies have shown that reperfusion injury and postischemic cardiac function are related to the quantity and delivery of oxygen during reperfusion. Substantial evidence suggests that controlled reoxygenation may ameliorate postischemic organ dysfunction. In this review, we discuss the role of oxygenation during reperfusion and subsequent biochemical and pathologic alterations in reperfused myocardium and recovery of heart function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study sought to determine whether hyperoxemic reperfusion with aqueous oxygen (AO) improves recovery of ventricular function after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute myocardial infarction (AMI). BACKGROUND Hyperbaric oxygen reduces myocardial injury and improves ventricular function when administered during ischemia-reperfusion. METHODS In a prospective, multicenter study, 269 patients with acute anterior or large inferior AMI undergoing primary or rescue PCI (<24 h from symptom onset) were randomly assigned after successful PCI to receive hyperoxemic reperfusion (treatment group) or normoxemic blood autoreperfusion (control group). Hyperoxemic reperfusion was performed for 90 min using intracoronary AO. The primary end points were final infarct size at 14 days, ST-segment resolution, and delta regional wall motion score index of the infarct zone at 3 months. RESULTS At 30 days, the incidence of major adverse cardiac events was similar between the control and AO groups (5.2% vs. 6.7%, p = 0.62). There was no significant difference in the incidence of the primary end points between the study groups. In post-hoc analysis, anterior AMI patients reperfused <6 h who were treated with AO had a greater improvement in regional wall motion (delta wall motion score index = 0.54 in control group vs. 0.75 in AO group, p = 0.03), smaller infarct size (23% of left ventricle in control group vs. 9% of left ventricle in AO group, p = 0.04), and improved ST-segment resolution compared with normoxemic controls. CONCLUSIONS Intracoronary hyperoxemic reperfusion was safe and well tolerated after PCI for AMI, but did not improve regional wall motion, ST-segment resolution, or final infarct size. A possible treatment effect was observed in anterior AMI patients reperfused <6 h of symptom onset.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxygen-derived free radicals play an important role in ischemia-reperfusion injury (IR). Hyperbaric oxygenation (HO) decreases free radical production. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of HO treatment on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. METHODS Rats were divided into four groups. All groups underwent right nephrectomy. Group I served as the control group; group II had left renal ischemia-reperfusion; group III was pretreated with HO; and group IV, ischemia-reperfusion and HO pretreatment. Tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels were measured, and histopathologic damage scored. RESULTS HO pretreatment significantly decreased tissue MDA levels and histopathologic scores among rats with IR. There was an increased GSH in HO-pretreated rats with IR; however, the difference was not significant. CONCLUSION HO prior to ischemia displayed a beneficial effect on renal IR by reducing oxygen radical peroxidation of lipid membranes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury occurs in both native and transplanted kidneys. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has been shown to prevent I/R injury in different tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of HBO on renal I/R injury in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to one of three groups. The Control group (n = 6) received right nephrectomy. The I/R (n = 6) and I/R+HBO groups (n = 6) received 30 min left renal ischemia followed by 24 h of reperfusion after right nephrectomy. The I/R+HBO group (n = 6) received additional HBO therapy for 60 min at 2.5 absolute atmospheres starting at the initial 15th minute of reperfusion. RESULTS In the I/R group, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine levels increased significantly compared with the Control and I/R+HBO groups (p < 0.05). BUN and creatinine levels were similar in the Control and I/R+HBO groups. Kidney samples from I/R group rats revealed severe tubular damage and neutrophil infiltration at histopathological examination. The animals treated with HBO showed markedly improved lesions and less neutrophil infiltration compared with the I/R group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS HBO exhibited marked protection against I/R injury in this study as measured using BUN and creatinine levels and renal histopathology. However, further studies are needed to clarify the renoprotective effect of HBO on I/R injury.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a chronic condition that is expected to increase in incidence along with increased life expectancy and an aging population. As the incidence of HF increases, the cost to national healthcare budgets is expected to run into the billions. The costs of lost productivity and increased social reliance on state support must also be considered. Recently, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has come to be seen as the major contributing factor to HF. Although thrombolysis may restore coronary perfusion after an AMI, it may also introduce ischemic reperfusion injury (IRI). In an attempt to ameliorate sustained protein damage caused by IRI, endogenous chaperone proteins known as heat shock proteins (HSPs) are induced as a consequence of the stress of IRI. Recently, hyperbaric oxygen has been shown to induce the production of HSPs in noncardiac tissue, with a resultant protective effect. This current opinion review article suggests a possible role for hyperbaric oxygen, as a technologically modern drug, in augmenting the induction of endogenous HSPs to repair and improve the function of failing hearts that have been damaged by AMI and IRI. In addition, this simple, safe, noninvasive drug may prove useful in easing the economic burden of HF on already overextended health resources.

Abstract
Over the years, the anecdotal medical use of oxygen has demonstrated, in a non-evidence-based manner, that it may have wide-ranging clinical consequences. Although oxygen is a critical substrate in the alleviation of hypoxia, anoxia, and ischemia, paradoxically, it also functions as a deleterious metabolite during the reperfusion of previously ischemic tissues. In adding to this controversy, a spate of new pioneering work has identified hyperoxygenation (hyperoxia) and its metabolites as solely and purposefully demonstrating cellular and clinical benefit,particularly in the field of ischemic reperfusion injury (IRI). Furthermore, the beneficial effects of oxygen have been technologically augmented by administration at doses above atmospheric pressure and at higher concentrations. The novel technology that involves oxygen treatment at supra-atmospheric pressures in high concentrations is known as hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). Although the concept of hyperbaric oxygen has been around since the mid 20th century, it is only during the past decade or so that its therapeutic potential as a new technology-based drug has been exploited for the purposes of cellular tolerance and protection. HBO has recently been shown to be a useful adjunct in several models of IRI, including myocardial infarction. How it does this remains to be elucidated. This article attempts to bring into the spotlight some pertinent developments regarding HBO and myocardial IRI, while simultaneously stimulating intellect, thought, and discussion as to whether this novel technology--HBO--which consists of only a singular drug--oxygen--is a therapy that warrants further laboratory and clinical investigation as a therapeutic modality that may be safe and cost-effective, without producing significant adverse effects.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) occurs following coronary artery revascularization. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were initially thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of this injury. However, the evidence for this is inconclusive. Recent studies involving ischemic preconditioning have identified ROS as potential mediators for the cardioprotective effects observed following this technique. Furthermore, cardiac studies involving IRI and the use of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) have demonstrated the ability of HBO to induce cardioprotection and to attenuate IRI. This review suggests the possible role for HBO as a new drug in the arena of myocardial revascularization and cellular protection. While there is mounting clinical evidence for this, a methodological understanding of HBO's cellular mechanisms of actions appears to be lacking. As such, this article attempts to draw the similarity between HBO and other protective oxidative stress mechanisms and then to speculate in an evidence-based manner its possible cellular mechanistic role as a drug via the generation of ROS.
