Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Liver Diseases
In the liver, most studies positively evaluated HBOT as a potential therapeutic option for liver transplantation, acute liver injury, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, fibrosis and cancer.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Improving Endurance
These results suggest that exercise training with intermittent hyperbaric exposure represents a beneficial strategy for increasing endurance performance by facilitating oxidative and glycolytic capacities and the expression of proteins involved in mitochondrial biogenesis in the hindlimb muscles.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Fertility
Our objective was to assess the safety and tolerability of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) as an adjunct to IVF therapy in women with a poor prognosis for pregnancy in a prospective observational pilot study. We conclude that HBO is well tolerated by women undergoing IVF treatment and that further study is required to determine whether this is an efficacious adjuvant therapy for women being treated by IVF.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Stage IV Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is more aggressive and metastatic than other breast cancer types. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is presently the predominant systemic therapy for TNBC patients. This case report highlights the influence of metabolically supported chemotherapy (MSCT), ketogenic diet (KD), hyperthermia (HT), and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in an overweight 29-year-old woman with stage IV (T4N3M1) triple-negative invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) for Treating Alzheimer’s Dementia
A 9-week treatment of low-pressure hyperbaric oxygen therapy (40 sessions) in a patient with Alzheimer's Dementia caused a significant increase in global metabolism on 18FDG PET imaging with concomitant symptomatic improvement. Mild symptomatic regressionwas treated with intermittent HBOT, normobaric oxygen, and medications to stabilize symptoms, suggesting the possibility of long-term HBOT treatment of AD with pharmacotherapy.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Impaired Brain Function
The benefits of treating toxic exposure patients with Hyperbaric Therapy appear to be very positive. Initial results indicate that Hyperbaric Therapy has a demonstrable and positive effect on some symptoms such as short term memory loss and balance.
