In “Cerebral Entanglements,” Allan J. Hamilton argues that new imaging technologies give us unprecedented access — with ...

For the first time, scientists have used real-time imaging to track tiny pieces of microplastics as they moved through the brain blood vessels of mice. As detailed in a recent paper published in the ...

Scientists led by the Institute of Nanotechnology in Italy, in collaboration with the ESRF, the European Synchrotron in ...

A new study reveals that microplastics can block blood flow in the brain, potentially leading to neurological issues like ...

A new study shows how plastics may lead to dangerous blood flow blockages in the brain. The study ... mammals or animal models that more closely resemble the human circulatory system, such as ...

Circulation problems impact millions globally, causing discomfort and lead to various health issues, from cold extremities to more serious cardiovascular conditions. While medical treatments play ...

While during aneurysm rupture there are multiple simultaneous triggers that can initiate an inflammatory response, in this study we isolate the impact of a single ICP spike on the brain and meningeal ...

Although no single food can improve mental sharpness, focus, and memory, some research shows that a nutrient-rich diet with plenty of omega-3 fats, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals is important ...

When a child develops a brain tumor, early diagnosis is essential. Alan Cohen, M.D., director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center, shares the most common signs and symptoms ...

Earlier studies done mostly on mice discovered that the brain had a system that flushed its tissues with cerebrospinal fluid, which carried away waste products in a process called glymphatic ...

A man with paralysis who had electrodes implanted in his brain can pilot a virtual drone through an obstacle course simply by imagining moving his fingers. His brain signals are interpreted by an ...

The integrative physiology of the left ventricle and systemic circulation is fundamental to our understanding of advanced heart failure and cardiogenic shock. In simplest terms, any increase in aortic ...
