~' This study demonstrates that the tissue pOz of the normal spinal cord of dogs can be modified by ventilating the animals with oxygen and carbogen. Following trauma to the cord, the tissue pO~ responded only to hyperbaric oxygen. A series of animals rendered paraplegic and treated with hyperbaric oxygen recovered to a greater degree than those in an untreated control group.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
