Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is vital for delivering oxygen and nutrients to the brain. Many forms of orthostatic intolerance (OI) involve impaired regulation of CBF in the upright posture, which results ...

When using tracer-based techniques like arterial spin labeling (ASL) to quantify cerebral blood flow (CBF), it is necessary to determine the partition coefficient of the tracer between the perfused ...

Recent research on hybrid diffuse optics reveals its potential to enhance blood transfusion monitoring, improving patient ...

Red blood cell transfusions (RBCTs) are life-saving treatments for critically ill patients suffering from anemia, a condition ...

Transfusions of red blood cells (RBCs) can be life-saving treatments for patients suffering from anemia, where the body lacks enough healthy RBCs to effectively deliver oxygen around the body. But the ...

Known conditions that increase the risk of CVST include hypercoagulable states, dehydration, adjacent infectious processes, low cerebral blood flow, oral contraceptives, hormone replacement ...

Emerging research suggests a fascinating link between the bacteria in our mouths and the health of our brains. Scientists are ...

Ageing is associated with progressive mental decline . This is due to loss of brain volume and inadequate generation of new neurons (nerve cells) .

Microplastics have been found to travel to the brain, causing blockages and deteriorating cognitive functions. Recent studies ...

Here, we highlight the complex molecular signaling that takes place in neurons, glial cells and the blood-brain barrier ... that take place every stage of cerebral ischemic injury, thus making ...

A study has found that green-tea drinkers have a lower risk of dementia, but it has more to offer than just cognitive ...
