Yafit Hachmo,Amir Hadanny,Amir Hadanny,Ramzia Abu Hamed,Malka Daniel-Kotovsky,Merav Catalogna,Gregory Fishlev,Erez Lang,Nir Polak,Keren Doenyas,Mony Friedman,Yonatan Zemel,Yair Bechor,Shai Efrati +13 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that HBOT may induce significant senolytic effects including significantly increasing telomere length and clearance of senescent cells in the aging populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy effects on pulmonary functions: a prospective cohort study
Amir Hadanny,Amir Hadanny,Tal Zubari,Liat Tamir-Adler,Yair Bechor,Gregory Fishlev,Erez Lang,Nir Polak,Jacob Bergan,Mony Friedman,Shai Efrati +10 more
TL;DR: There was a modest non clinically significant though statistically significant improvement in PEF and FVC in the current cohort of patients who were without chronic lung diseases, and repeated hyperbaric oxygen exposure based on the currently used HBOT protocol is safe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves neurocognitive functions and symptoms of post-COVID condition: randomized controlled trial
Shani Zilberman-Itskovich,Merav Catalogna,Efrat Sasson,Karin Elman-Shina,Amir Hadanny,Erez Lang,S. Finci,Nir Polak,Gregory Fishlev,Calanit Korin,Ran Shorer,Yoav Parag,Marina Sova,Shai Efrati +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on post-COVID-19 patients with ongoing symptoms for at least 3 months after confirmed infection was evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cognitive enhancement of healthy older adults using hyperbaric oxygen: a randomized controlled trial
Amir Hadanny,Amir Hadanny,Malka Daniel-Kotovsky,Gil Suzin,Rahav Boussi-Gross,Merav Catalogna,Kobi Dagan,Yafit Hachmo,Ramzia Abu Hamed,Efrat Sasson,Gregory Fishlev,Erez Lang,Nir Polak,Keren Doenyas,Mony Friedman,Sigal Tal,Yonatan Zemel,Yair Bechor,Shai Efrati +18 more
TL;DR: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy was shown to induce cognitive enhancements in healthy aging adults via mechanisms involving regional changes in CBF, including attention, information processing speed and executive functions, which normally decline with aging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in children with post-concussion syndrome improves cognitive and behavioral function: a randomized controlled trial
Amir Hadanny,Merav Catalogna,Slava Yaniv,Orit Stolar,Lynn Rothstein,Adi Shabi,Gil Suzin,Efrat Sasson,Erez Lang,S. Finci,Nir Polak,Gregory Fishlev,Ruth Harpaz,Moran Adler,Ron-El Goldman,Yonatan Zemel,Yair Bechor,Shai Efrati +17 more
TL;DR: In this article , the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on children suffering from persistent post-concussion syndrome (PPCS) from mild-moderate TBI events six months to 10 years prior was evaluated.
