Article Synopsis
  • This study explores the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on cognitive function and neuronal health in aged mice, particularly focusing on spatial learning and memory improvements.
  • The research found that HBOT led to significant changes in gene expression related to synapse organization and reduced levels of hyperphosphorylated tau, which is associated with neurodegenerative diseases.
  • Additionally, HBOT enhanced synaptic plasticity and initiated autophagy processes, suggesting this therapy could be a promising intervention for age-related cognitive decline.

When mining-induced fractures reach overlying aquifers, water enters the mining area and the coal is under different natural water saturation conditions, which significantly affect the mechanical behavior of the coal. In this study, uniaxial compression tests were conducted on dry, partially saturated, quasi-saturated, and fully saturated coal samples. The mechanical parameters, acoustic emission (AE) activities, and failure patterns of differently saturated coal samples were analyzed.
