		<description>OQF,

FIO2 and additional detail about &quot;simple oxygen therapy&quot; are provided in the cited source of footnote #5 as indicated in the article.

Have a nice day.</description>

		<description>Quite simply, where has D`oc written FI02 anywhere in his/her or whatever’s, articles or posts .Dock  hasn’t quoted it any where all that has been done is to mention in a broad term  &quot;oxygen therapy&quot; This means specifically  in HBOT speak 100% oxygen if FIO2  was meant ,you would have to qualify it by saying “oxygen therapy @ FIO2 then the percentage” you haven’t so its 100% oxygen.

Again mis-leading the public and your friends on here who would look right fools if they regurgitated any of your toxic vomit that you have written..

 Quite simply,your dangerous and so are your articles..</description>

		<description>OQF,

You are completely lost. No one is talking about &lt;em&gt;pure&lt;/em&gt; oxygen in the lungs. When you have a little better understanding of partial pressures and fraction inspired (FIO2), come back and we&#039;ll talk.</description>

		<description>If you have two paragraphs, you need to use two blockquotes. I&#039;m guessing that&#039;s just a limitation of the Wordpress version currently installed here at LB/RB.</description>

		<description>Hi Chris -

&lt;blockquote cite=&quot;&quot;&gt;Except the last time I used it, the blockquote from the above buttons only encompassed the first paragraph&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I noticed the exact same thing!  I was wondering if I&#039;d gone crazy or something.  Well, crazier.

		<description>Quite Simply let me explain,Of course, oxygen has its good points. Besides being necessary for respiration and the reliable combustion engine, it can be liquefied and used as rocket fuel.. Your wisbom, Doc is that by filling the lungs with pure O2, one is pushing more of the vital gas into the blood, and thus to organs that are weakened and in need of support. It has also long been known that, pure oxygen can be toxic–a fact with which scuba divers and astronauts are intimately familiar. Recent studies have indicated that the human body responds to pure oxygen, even at normal pressures, in a negative way.
 Liquid OxygenWhen pure O2 is introduced to the lungs, autonomic reflex increases respiration. The increased rate of breathing means that a much larger load of carbon dioxide is released from the body, which causes the blood vessels to constrict. Despite the increased amount of available oxygen in the lungs, the circulatory system is hampered, and cannot deliver precious O2 as well as it could when breathing normal atmosphere hence the need of pressure….


Ronald Harper, a neurobiology professor at UCLA, conducted observations on a group of healthy teenagers breathing various gas mixes using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). His findings showed that in some subjects the pure O2 caused the brain to go clinically bonkers. Brain structures such as the hippocampus, the insula, and the cingulate cortex all displayed an adverse reaction; they in turn spurred the hypothalamus, the body&#039;s main regulatory gland, into a fervor. The hypothalamus regulates a myriad of things, including heart rate, body temperature, and is the master of a variety of other glands. &lt;strong&gt;The introduction of pure oxygen prompts the hypothalamus to flood the body with a cocktail of hormones and neurotransmitters which serve to hamper heart rate, and further reduce the circulatory system&#039;s effectiveness.&lt;/strong&gt; 

Now go and look up oxidative stress or are you to lazy to even bother...and prefer to spew baloney...without evidence of good..</description>

Citation or attribution is also not a bad idea.

Is there anything you find particularly relevant in the passage you&#039;ve cut and pasted?</description>

		<description>Doc oxidative stress and free radicals. look it up ,also oxygen toxicity..you wont want to breath pure oxygen at sea level again..

I expect your looking at the tables below without taking the above into your mis-truths..

Oxygen solubility is defined by Henry’s Law which looks at the relative quantity of gas entering solution as related to the PAO2, but does not define the absolute amount of gas in solution. The absolute amount of gas varies with different fluids and is determined by the solubility coefficient of gas in fluids, which is temperature dependent. Oxygoen solubility in whole blood at 37oC is 0.0031 ml of O2 per dl blood per mmHg PAO2. Breathing air at sea level arterial oxygen tension is about 100 mmHg, therefore the blood carries about 0.31 ml of dissolved oxygen per dl whole blood. When breathing 100% oxygen at sea level the amount of dissolved oxygen increases to about 2.1 ml of O2 per dl blood. Breathing 100 percent oxygen at 2 ATA results in a PAO2 of 1433 mmHg ( 4.4 ml of dissolved oxygen per dl of blood). At 3 ATA provides a PAO2 of about 2200 mmHg and adds about 6.8 ml O2 to each dl of blood. A healthy adult human at rest uses about 6ml of oxygen per dl of circulating blood. Thus HBO at 3 ATA provides sufficient plasma oxygen to exceed the body’s total metabolic requirement. The dissolved content of 6ml oxygen per dl of blood is equivalent to the sea level oxygen capacity of 5 grams of hemoglobin.. This phenomenon is the reason Dr. Boerma was able to sustain pigs life without blood in his study “Life Without Blood”.4,6
