Background: Electroencephalogram (EEG) biomarkers with adequate sensitivity and specificity to reflect the brain's health status can become indispensable for health monitoring during prolonged missions in space. The objective of our study was to assess whether the basic features of the posterior dominant rhythm (PDR) change under microgravity conditions compared to earth-based scalp EEG recordings.
Methods: Three crew members during the 16-day AXIOM-1 mission to the International Space Station (ISS), underwent scalp EEG recordings before, during, and after the mission by means of a dry-electrode self-donning headgear designed to support long-term EEG recordings in space.
Cumulative data indicate that new protocols of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) may induce neuroplasticity and improve clinical symptoms of patients suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effects of HBOT on veterans with combat-associated PTSD (CA-PTSD) in a randomized, sham-controlled trial. Male veterans aged 25-60 years with CA-PTSD, with a Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for (CAPS-5) score above 20, were included.

- Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is gaining attention as a treatment for neurological and psychological disorders by promoting brain recovery and neuroplasticity.
- It works through several cellular mechanisms, improving processes like mitochondrial function, neurogenesis, synaptogenesis, and reducing inflammation.
- Clinical benefits include better cognitive function, recovery from brain injuries, and symptom relief for PTSD and fibromyalgia, suggesting HBOT's potential in neuromodulation deserves more research.
Introduction: Aging is associated with a progressive decline in the capacity for physical activity. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effect of an intermittent hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) protocol on maximal physical performance and cardiac perfusion in sedentary older adults.
Methods: A randomized controlled clinical trial randomized 63 adults (> 64yrs) either to HBOT (n = 30) or control arms (n = 33) for three months.
