LOS ANGELES, Feb. 7, 2025 — Removing a blood clot from a large brain artery, then injecting the clot-dissolving drug tenecteplase into the artery resulted in stroke survivors being more likely ...

Stroke survivors were more likely to have little or no disability after 90 days if a clot was removed from a large brain artery followed by the injection of the clot-dissolving medication ...

from the middle cerebral artery, and 26.8% (95% CI 18.5% to 37%) from the basilar artery. The aneurysms had a mean maximum diameter of 8.6 mm (95% CI 7.3 to 10 mm) and mean neck diameter of 5.2 mm (95 ...

Newly discovered brain cells count each bite before sending the order to cease eating a meal. Columbia scientists have found specialized neurons in the brains of mice that order the animals to ...

Feb. 4, 2025 – Microplastics have been found in the brain, showing they can cross the blood-brain barrier, and the amounts of the tiny plastic bits inside our bodies appear to be increasing at a ...

This can cause blood to leak into the other layers of the artery and may restrict blood flow to the brain, causing a stroke. Carotid artery dissection is the most common cause of stroke in people ...

The amount of microplastics in the human brain appears to be increasing over time: Concentrations rose by roughly 50 percent between 2016 and 2024, according to a new study Sarah Kuta Daily ...

Elon Musk wants to merge humans with AI. And his goal of achieving "symbiosis" with artificial intelligence starts with a brain chip. Neuralink, a company Musk co-founded, is testing linking ...

Cognitively normal human brain samples collected at autopsy in early 2024 contained more tiny shards of plastic than samples collected eight years prior, according to a new study. Overall ...

We recently demonstrated successful automatic brain extraction via a deep-learning-based framework, U-Net, using 2D convolutions. However, such an approach cannot make use of the rich 3D ...

The proatlantal intersegmental artery (PIA) plays a crucial role in blood supply during embryonic development, and failure of its closure can lead to the persistent proatlantal intersegmental artery ...

To meet the ever-growing demand for data storage, researchers are refining the way digital memory is manufactured at the atomic scale. To improve data storage, researchers are perfecting 3D NAND flash ...
