BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of normobaric oxygen (NBO) therapy on T2*-weighted images of intracranial hemorrhages (ICHs). METHODS Two common models of ICH were performed in mice, and longitudinal T2*-weighted images of the hematomas were acquired under normoxia or NBO. The effects of NBO were also investigated on perfusion-weighted imagin...

OBJECTIVE To define non-bacterial osteitis (NBO) as a clinical entity possibly associated with autoimmune manifestations. Patients with sterile osteitis were analysed to develop diagnostic criteria. METHODS A total of 89 patients with non-bacterial inflammatory bone lesions were observed for a median of 49 months. History, diagnostic imaging, laboratory and histological data were obtained. Mu...

in this paper, the structural properties of the b30n20 molecule have been investigated at b3lyp/6-31g (d) level of theory. the optimized structure and electronic properties calculations for the studiedmolecule have been performed using gaussian 03 program. a mathematical equation of third degreewas exploited for the correlation and exchange energy with the number of primitives. the naturalbondi...

ABSTRACT. Nonlinear optical (NLO) active guanidinium trichloroacetate (GTCA) crystal was synthesised and grown by using slow evaporation solution growth technique from mixed solvent. The characterized single X-ray diffraction (SXRD) powder (PXRD) analysis. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of GTCA recorded the frequency assignments various functional groups were compared with theoretic...

In this work, a structural and electronic properties of novel organic arsenate template by 4-aminopyridine, with the general formula (C5H7N2)(C5H8N2)[AsO4]·H2O ((4-APH)(4-APH2)[AsO4]·H2O) have been presented. The density functional theory (DFT) along B3LYP hybrid is employed. optimized structure was found to be in well consistent X-ray diffraction geometry. examination vibrational spectrum corr...

Hyperbaric (HBO) and normobaric (NBO) oxygen therapy have been shown to be neuroprotective in focal cerebral ischemia. In previous comparative studies, NBO appeared to be less effective than HBO. However, the experimental protocols did not account for important advantages of NBO in the clinical setting such as earlier initiation and prolonged administration. Therefore, we compared the effects o...
