In healthy brains, immune cells called microglia patrol for damage, clearing away debris and harmful proteins. But in the presence of the APOE4 protein—the most important genetic risk factor for ...

The IMTAS method demonstrated its potential by identifying several promising biomarkers and immune pathways associated with ischemic stroke. For example, specific gene expression signatures in ...

An occipital stroke happens in the back of the brain. This lobe, or part of the brain, helps people to recognize what they see. That means strokes in the occipital lobe can cause vision changes, which ...

大量研究发现，使用阿斯巴甜能明显降低大脑各个区域（比如大脑皮层和海马区）的可用的谷胱甘肽水平，这可能使大脑中出现脂质过氧化进而引起细胞死亡，后果类似于电线短路或漏电时的情形，影响绝不仅仅是学习和记忆能力减退这么简单。

Tens of thousands of people who have a stroke could be diagnosed and treated sooner as new data found that the average time between onset of first symptoms and a 999 call being made was nearly an hour ...

The differences between a stroke and a seizure can be confusing. Both conditions involve the brain, may be characterized by problems controlling physical movements, are not uncommon, and involve ...
