The potential long-term neurological improvement of early hyperbaric oxygen therapy on hemorrhagic stroke in the diabetics
Compared with ischemic stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a kind of acute cerebral disorder with relatively worse neurobehavioral deterioration. The whole pathological progress of ICH is hasty and the onset of signs or symptoms commonly occurs within tens of minutes. It is believed that the onset of ICH is induced by potential complications of hypertension or diabetes [1]. Since the worldwide incidences of cardiovascular diseases (especially hypertension and diabetes) increase rapidly in recent years, the potential risk of ICH is also a rigorous challenge in these days [2].

Role of Comorbidities as Limiting Factors to the Effect of Hyperbaric Oxygen in Diabetic Foot Patients: A Retrospective Analysis
Conclusions Diabetic foot patients with histories of coronary artery diseases or stroke and non-proliferative or proliferative retinopathy might resist HBOT. PAD at the femoral arterial level has been shown to have a significant negative effect on HBOT outcomes that should be first considered for surgery. In contrast, PAD below the knee does not seem to be an obstacle to the efficacy of HBOT.
