Scleroderma is one of the features of Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD). The majority of people with Scleroderma also have symptoms of Raynaud's Phenomenon. A chronological series of HBOT case studies and research covering these conditions is arranged below. Unfortunately, the majority of the research on Scleroderma and Raynaud's using HBOT was performed in Russia and most do not have translations on PubMed. Anyone able to source or translate the Russian studies is encouraged to contact us.
