Task: Intent Identification
Input (English): Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has been advocated as a therapy to improve neurological recovery after ischemia, since HBO may improve tissue oxygen delivery. We examined the effect of HBO treatment after global cerebral ischemia on early brain injury.', 'Rabbits were subjected to 10 minutes of global cerebral ischemia by cerebrospinal fluid compression. After 30 minutes of reperfusion, rabbits either were subjected to HBO for 125 minutes and then breathed 100% O2 at ambient pressure for 90 minutes or breathed 100% O2 for 215 minutes. At the end of reperfusion and 90 minutes after exposure, brain vascular permeability and cerebral blood flow were measured. Somatosensory evoked potentials were monitored throughout the experiment.', 'HBO treatment reduced (P < .05) brain vascular permeability by 16% in gray matter and by 20% in white matter. Cerebral blood flow was lower (P < .05) in the HBO group (40.9 +/- 1.9 mL/min per 100 g, mean +/- SEM) compared with controls (50.8 +/- 2.0 mL/min per 100 g). Somatosensory evoked potential recovery was similar in the two groups (P > .05).
