A major international study has uncovered a new biological clue that could help predict dementia long before memory problems arise. Researchers from the University of Cambridge and Zhejiang University ...
The space between the arachnoid and pia meningeal layers encasing the brain is a landscape of connective tissue, blood vessels, and cerebrospinal fluid. Scientists debate how that fluid moves within ...
Prognostic Significance of Occult Metastases Detected by Sentinel Lymphadenectomy and Reverse Transcriptase–Polymerase Chain Reaction in Early-Stage Melanoma Patients PURPOSE: Leptomeningeal disease ...
Chiari malformation type I (CMI) is a congenital neurological disorder characterized by the herniation of cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum, leading to impaired cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ...
The brain's cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pulses during deep sleep and this appears to be tied to brain wave activity and blood flow, an exploratory study showed. Large oscillations of CSF inflow to the ...
Few scientists doubt that backed-up clearance of detritus from the brain correlates with accumulation of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. But which comes first? Data presented at the 9th ...
Deep sleep serves as a vital function which enables the body to eliminate toxic substances that develop in the brain, throughout daily activities. The brain uses increased cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ...
