We are always on the lookout for new trials or those we may have missed. If you know of any (human) RCTs in this area please contact us at [m.bennett@unsw.edu.au]
Evidence link: to evidence-based review of many HBOT indications (MD thesis of Mike Bennett)

Latest CATSNew evidence that HBO is effective for radiation cystitis (Oscarsson 2019), sudden hearing loss (Hu 2020

Interesting findings that HBO seems to elevate mood when combined with rehabilitation following spinal cord injury (Feng 2017)

An abstract of a study that may show if diet can infuence time to oxygen toxicity (Winstead-Derlega 2021)

More evidence that adding HBOT to good wound care helps heal diabetic foot ulcers (Kumar 2020) but unconvincing evidence that transcutaneous oxygen improves with the addition of HBOT (Wadee 2020)

Some further weak evidence that fibromyalgia may improve with HBOT (Izquierdo 2020 and Curtis 2021). 

More pieces of the puzzle of dropping BSL in the chamber during treatment. HBO but not HB Air increases insulin sensitivity (Wilkinson 2020). Another suggests weak evidence for a benefit of adding HBO to radio-iodine oesophageal stents to treat cancer (Zhang 2020)
