“Bone loss and subsequent repair are biological processes related to many pathological conditions affecting bones, including fractures, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, osteomyelitis, osteonecrosis, and tumor. HBOT could have a promising future as an adjunctive therapeutic approach for treating many challenges cases of inflammation-related bone loss.” <view study> Read Less

This study was designed to clarify the mechanisms by which 1.3 ATA (ambient air) hyperbaric therapy  improves endurance and interval exercise capacities in highly trained mice. During sprint interval training, the results showed an increase in the proportion of type 1 muscle fibers and promoted the growth of blood vessels and muscle fibers. These results may lead to a new strategy for enhancing exercise capacity in well-trained mice.” <view study> Read Less

'Exercise training and HBO2 exposure stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis, increase capillary density, and induce adaptive antioxidant mechanisms' 49 Healthy long-term intermediate-altitude residents were randomized into 2 groups: one performing six sessions of a SIT regimen over two weeks in a hyperbaric chamber (1.4 ATA); the other performing under ambient pressure conditions (0.85 ATA) The results of this study demonstrated an improvement of cardiorespiratory fitness in the hyperbaric group, reflected by a a significantly higher increase in peak work rate and VE. <view study> Read Less

“The present data suggest that hyperbaric exposure, particularly with oxygen, positively modulates the efficiency of skeletal muscle mitochondria after muscle contusion" <view study> Read Less

This study was focused on exercise training and evaluated the effects of 1.3 ATA (ambient air) hyperbaric exposure during the training regimen. The researchers were able to see positive changes in cellular processes and protein levels, allowing them to conclude the following: "The results showed that intermittent exposure of 1.3 ATA was able to enhance endurance performance." <view study> Read Less
