Depression is more common in stroke patients, which has an adverse influence on the recovery of cognitive and functional abilities, according to researchers.
Researchers at the Texas A&M University School of Medicine are leading research on the relationship between stroke-induced intestinal permeability, or leakiness, and cognitive impairment with the goal of improving stroke outcomes.
Washington [US], October 14 (ANI): Two distinct brain networks have been identified during a study that links the location of brain injury to levels of depression in patients following the injury.
Auckland [New Zealand], October 2 (ANI): Severe brain injury that develops slowly after preterm births, causing the likes of cerebral palsy, may be treatable, suggests new research from the University of Auckland.
Auckland [New Zealand], September 29 (ANI): New research from the University of Auckland has found severe brain injury that develops slowly after preterm births, causing the likes of cerebral palsy, may be treatable.
Washington [US], August 25 (ANI): Research in mice has cast new light on the molecular mechanisms that underlie spatial mapping in the brain. Scientists have found that a gene called Fos plays a key role in helping the brain use specialized navigation cells to form and maintain spatial maps.
Washington [US], July 6 (ANI): Scientists have shown how our brain's response to watching emotional and social stimuli in a movie changes between infancy and adulthood.
Los Angeles [US], June 17 (ANI): A new study led by researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University used functional brain imaging technology to reveal a potential answer: It increases activity in the brain's reward network.
