HBOT Conversations:
Dr. Paul Harch & 8,101 Genes
He is the author of The Oxygen Revolution and is considered an International expert and pioneer in the field of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT). His informative, and comprehensive guide on HBOT has helped countless souls better understand what HBOT is and how it directly affects the body at the genetic level.
This episode on 8,101 genes is the eighth in a nine episode series that will be released weekly with Dr. Harch.

In episode 8 of 9, host Edward di Girolamo speaks with world renowned HBOT expert, Dr. Paul G. Harch, about aging and the 8,101 genes HBOT affects.
di Girolamo starts this conversation with Dr. Harch bringing up the 8,101 genes that are activated by Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. The discussion leads to talk of Big Pharma, telomeres, reparative gene process, patents, and successful business models for HBOT clinics.
Dr. Harch explains that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy affects 8,101 of our genes, and it’s doing so on a different level for the ones that are overactive and abnormal in the disease process. He speaks of a 2004 lecture he gave to A4M about the effects of HBOT on longevity; and asks, “Where is senescence and aging based?”, answering with, “It’s in our DNA”. Dr. Harch dives in to how HBOT turns on our genes to grow new tissue and stimulates cellular repair and regeneration. di Girolamo agrees and brings up a different past lecture from Dr. Harch where Harch referred to Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy as the ‘Fountain of Youth‘.
This series ends with Dr. Harch discussing a Buffalo VA study, and how the study subjects (comprised of older veterans) literally came alive and started propositioning nurses after Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy treatments. He explained this is why no follow-up study was ever done because they weren’t expecting such and didn’t know what to do. Makes sense…. studies have shown success in HBOT treating erectile dysfunction.

Dr. Paul G. Harch, MD
Dr. Harch initiated and continues to be a private practice that has resulted in the largest case experience in neurological hyperbaric medicine in the world. In this practice, he adapted the concepts of conventional hyperbaric oxygen therapy to wounds in the central nervous system, which spawned the subsequent academic and research practice. Harch HBOT is the best place to receive oxygen therapy treatments, and patients have traveled from more than 50 countries to be treated by Dr. Harch himself.

Clinical Trial – Quality of Recovery After General or Spinal Anesthesia for Inguinal Hernia Repair
Different anesthetic techniques have been proposed for carrying out Inguinal hernia repair,
including local anesthesia, regional and general. There are no recent data on the application
of a validated questionnaire to assess which anesthetic technique, local infiltration under
general anesthesia or spinal anesthesia, would provide better quality of recovery in the
opinion of the patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair. The aim of the study is to perform
a randomized clinical trial comparing the quality of recovery (QoR-40) after local
infiltration under general anesthesia via laryngeal mask (LMA) or spinal anesthesia for
unilateral inguinal hernia repair. METHODS – Seventy patients aged 18 to 65 years old, who
were scheduled to undergo unilateral inguinal hernia repair at Santa Lucinda Hospital will be
enrolled in the study. The anesthesia will be performed according to the following sequence:
L Group – intravenous (I.V.) propofol and alfentanyl, followed by LMA positioning. The
anesthesia will be maintained by propofol. For local anesthesia, approximately 50 ml of 0.5%
ropivacaine will be infiltrated along the line of incision in the subcutaneous plane,
followed by peripheral nerve block technique (e.g., ilioinguinal-hypogastric nerve block) and
local wound infiltration at the fascial level. S Group – spinal puncture followed by
intrathecal 15 mg of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine injection and sedation with propofol by
continuous infusion. Pain will be assessed every 15 minutes at Post-anesthesia Care Unit
(PACU) using a 0-10 numeric pain rating scale and I.V. morphine will be administered to
maintain the pain score below 4. The QoR-40 will be administered by a blind investigator 24
hours after surgery.
Clinical Trial – Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block for Proximal-end Femur Fractures
Fracture femur is a common injury which is associated with excruciating pain. Positioning for
neuraxial blocks is always challenging because even slight overriding of the fracture ends is
intensely painful .It can causing major patient distress which accompanied by well-known
physiological sequelae such as sympathetic activation causing tachycardia, hypotension, and
increased cardiac work that may compromise high-risk cardiac patients.
Fascia iliaca compartment block is highly effective in blocking lateral cutaneous nerve of
the thigh and femoral nerve. Fascia iliaca compartment block is not only easy to perform but
it is also associated with minimal risk as the local anesthetic is injected at a safe
distance from the femoral artery and femoral nerve. It is always safe to perform the fascia
iliaca compartment block prior to spinal anesthesia as the patient can respond during
administration of the local anesthetic and can prevent intra-neuronal injections
MicroRNA-148b is a potential prognostic biomarker and predictor of response to radiotherapy in non-small-cell lung cancer.
Abstract: miR-148b has been found to be aberrantly expressed in various tumor types. It has recently been reported to be involved in regulating radioresistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. However, its expression level and association with...
