Large oscillations of CSF inflow to the brain appeared about every 20 seconds and were tightly coupled to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) signals of blood flow and electroencephalogram ...
New research has found that people with narcolepsy type 1 exhibit patterns of slow brain pulsations that resemble those seen in healthy sleep. The findings, published in PNAS, suggest that orexin—a ...
New research from Boston University suggests that tonight while you sleep, something amazing will happen within your brain. Your neurons will go quiet. A few seconds later, blood will flow out of your ...
Chiari malformation, an anomaly of the posterior cranial fossa, also known as Arnold–Chiari malformation, was described in autopsies by Hans Chiari, an Austrian pathologist, in 1891. He defined four ...
The first critical step in neurologic diagnosis is neuroanatomic localization of the lesion. Of importance in description of the neurologic examination is whether there are signs of elevated ...
With age, the brain’s ability to clear aggregating proteins such as Aβ wanes. In the November 9 Nature, researchers led by Jonathan Kipnis at Washington University in St. Louis suggest a reason why.
Use of exosome analysis to reveal glioma-specific genetic changes in patient serum. Background: Treatment of leptomeningeal metastasis (LMD) remains challenging due to advanced systemic disease at ...
The brain rinses away Aβ during sleep, powered by glymphatic flow from arteries to veins. In today’s Journal of Experimental Medicine, researchers led by Takeshi Iwatsubo at the University of Tokyo ...
