The big takeaway from the recent Alzheimer’s Association International Conference in London is an economic message: Dementia finally has a business model, writes Jason Karlawish.
Researchers uncover 10 ways diabetes may raise dementia risk, revealing how blood sugar can quietly affect brain health.
Astrocytes undergo phenotypic changes with aging, contributing to neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive impairments in later life. The temporoammonic (TA) pathway terminates at the stratum lacunosum-moleculare (SLM)…
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a devastating autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder characterized by progressive degeneration of lower motor neurons, leading to muscle weakness and atrophy predominantly manifesting…
BackgroundBrain-computer interfaces (BCIs) based on electroencephalography (EEG) signals have been applied to improve active hand motor function rehabilitation of stroke patients. Besides, the bilateral arm…
The ability to acquire and adjust a sensorimotor skill relies on coordinated activity within a cortico–basal ganglia–thalamo–cortical loop, yet the underlying inter-areal dynamics remain unclear. The zebra finch…
Sleep staging is important for diagnosing and managing sleep disorders. However, artificial intelligence-based models still struggle with explainability, sequence plausibility, and personalization across subjects. We…
Following cerebral ischemia, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expressed by Iba-1⁺ microglia may support neuronal survival and plasticity, yet the micro-environmental cues that drive this phenotype remain largely…
Dual-task walking is essential for community ambulation after stroke, yet its quantitative evaluation using variability-based metrics remains underexplored. To determine the test-retest reliability of gait variability…
Whether fatigue during walking increases the risk of falling is relevant, particularly for older adults. If fatigue leads to gait alterations that increase the risk of falling—and these changes develop faster than…
Early and accurate diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is crucial for timely intervention. However, single-modal structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) has limited discriminative ability, and existing multi-modal…
Neural ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are widely used in neuroscience to model the collective activity of neurons during behavioral tasks. The high dimensionality of their parameter and activity spaces, however…
Intermittent fasting linked to better brain health – but be careful which method you choose, expert warns - HEALTH IN FOCUS: New research suggests a specific intermittent fasting protocol could reduce ...
A new study reveals that memory consolidation during sleep requires coordinated signaling among the orbitofrontal cortex, thalamus, and hippocampus, and shows how epileptic spikes break this circuit.
Engineers develop self-powered wearable sweat patch for continuous levodopa tracking in Parkinson's.
A new study argues that US suicide statistics significantly undercount deaths by misclassifying up to 30 percent of drug overdoses as accidents.
A new study reveals that the vagus nerve transmits gut nutrient signals to the hippocampus, boosting acetylcholine release and spatial memory.
A form of dementia that strikes younger people is more common in Hispanics than previously thought, according to a new study led by researchers at UT Health San Antonio, the academic health center of The University of…
A new study reveals that eye state flips the relationship between alpha brain activity and mind wandering.
A type of brain activity linked to arousal and attention can track mind wandering. But research conflicts on whether this activity promotes or hinders mind wandering. Esther Thielking of Barnard College and colleagues…
FDA Advisory Committee voted to recommend easing compounding restrictions for six peptides, including Epitalon and Semax, late last week - ...
