Around a third of people are able to almost fully rebuild their brains after a stroke and uncovering why is pointing the way ...
Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and long-term disability around the world. It happens when the brain suddenly ...
A new study from scientists at the University of Rochester Medicine suggests that reinforcing the body's natural daily rhythms to improve sleep could help the brain recover after a stroke, pointing to ...
Our bodies work hard to keep everything in balance. Body temperature, fluid levels, and many chemical processes are carefully ...
Ischemic cerebral infarction is the most prevalent type of stroke, causing significant disability and death worldwide. Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a strong predictor of subsequent stroke.
Our body loves the state of homeostasis, where everything is in perfect equilibrium, from temperature to pH levels to fluid ...

Chilling the body with drugs could limit brain damage from stroke
Putting brain cells into a hibernation-like state via drugs that cool down core body temperature may help to preserve them ...
Ischaemic stroke arises when cerebral blood flow is critically reduced, depriving neural tissue of oxygen and glucose. The primary event is often thromboembolic occlusion of a major artery, though ...
The use of thrombectomy in patients with acute stroke and a large infarct of unrestricted size has not been well studied. We assigned, in a 1:1 ratio, patients with proximal cerebral vessel occlusion ...
Understanding how hibernation affects neurons sheds light on how neurons adapt to changing states and can inform treatment strategies for conditions in which neurons are damaged or impaired. In a new ...
BERLIN, Germany—Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) are more likely than similar individuals without the arrhythmia to have brain infarcts detected on MRI, an analysis of the Swiss-AF cohort study ...
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is a major cause of hemorrhagic stroke, a frequent contributor to age-related cognitive impairment, and a key component in adverse responses to beta-amyloid (Aβ) ...
