APP and Alzheimer disease: <h4>Objective</h4>In this study, we examined the effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy in ameliorating cognitive deficits in mice with Alzheimer's disease (AD), while also assessing its impact on the autophagic pathway within the context of AD.<h4>Methods</h4>20 double-transgenic mice expressing the amyloid precursor protein and presenilin 1 (APP/PS1) were purposefully selected and randomly assigned to groups A and B. Concurrently, 20 C57BL/6 mice were chosen and randomly categorized into groups C and D, each consisting of 10 mice.
